Friends of the Library

Who We Are

The Friends of the Library are advocates and ambassadors. We support the programs and activities of the library and raise funds to sponsor library events and enable special purchases.

Our Annual Book Sale in the summer offers hundreds of books and media for all age groups, attracts readers from far and wide, and is our major fundraising event. Fall Shed sales and book bag giveaways further help us put books in the hands of readers. The books we sell are donated to the library by members of the communities we serve.
