With so much exciting planning ahead in our beautiful new library space, there are wonderful opportunities to get involved and help shape the future of our library.

Here’s to 40 years of friendship and to all that’s still to come! ❤️📖

Thank you to all who donated and shopped our book sale this weekend! 📚 We hope everyone is enjoying their purchases.

As a reminder, proceeds from all Friends fundraising events, including our Annual Book Sale, go directly to the community.

We use the proceeds to help support the library’s programs and purchase items outside the library budget. For example, this year, we provided funding for a Large Print starter collection!

We also use our funding to put on wonderful events at the library for our community, such as our Evening with the Artist Series.

Support the Library by supporting the Friends!
