The Friends of the Library is a certified 501(c)3 organization. We are a volunteer organization, whose only goal is service. All membership dues and monies raised are used for library-connected public service. Your monetary donations not only make a big difference to the library, they are tax-deductible.

The Friends is governed by an Executive Team and residents of all ages are welcome. Over its history, the Friends have helped the library to purchase a circulation desk, chairs, shelving, computers, and library card key tags that could not otherwise have been purchased. We have also helped fund many library programs and events.
