Friends Of The Brainerd Public Library Friends Of The Brainerd Public Library provide support and materials to our library…items not covered by the regular budget.

We host fund-raising events in our community including several book sales. We advocate for literacy in our community. Friends Of The Brainerd Public Library provide support and materials not provided by the library budget by having two book sales a year and running special events. We encourage library use of resources and services through promotions and participation. If you are interested in becoming a Friend Of The Brainerd Public Library, receiving our monthly emails and helping out with the book sales and/or special events, please email us at [email protected]
