The Friends of the Library are a dedicated, enthusiastic group of people who value libraries and the services they provide to their community. Through tireless fundraising, the Friends help us to meet our needs in the library. Last year the Friends have allowed us to update our childrens corner with new furniture. This included new couches and chairs, side tables and our new mascot 'Sir Reads Alot' (see our photo gallery for pictures). The friends also helped us to update equipment such as printers and purchase a new children's literacy computer. We also have new display shelves and storage shelving to help keep us organized.
