Friends Of The Library

MEET THE FRIENDS

The Friends of the Library is a group of community members dedicated to raising funds to support the Library. Our Friends raise money for everything from basic supply needs, to special programs. We would not be where we are today without the loyalty and generosity of our Friends! To date, our Friends of the Library have raised more than $300,000 since 1978. These funds have been used to purchase equipment, books, decorations, programs for all ages and even the beautiful chandelier that hangs in the main lobby and all the sconces throughout the building. All of their contributions help make our Library such a special place for all ages!
