Friends of the Library

The Friends of the Library is a non-profit organization dedicated to the constant support of the library and special events. Some of these programs include:
  • Museum passes
  • Scholarships
  • Special speaker and author visits
  • Summer reading events
Through fund-raisers like the book sales and membership fees, the Friends are able to support programs that otherwise would not be a part of the library experience and advocate for the library.
