Get Involved with Friends of the Library

How do I do get involved?

We meet the third Monday evening of the month. Interested? Contact Amanda for more details. We are always looking for volunteers. We have teen volunteers that help out at in-person events (once we return to doing so) and earn community involvement hours. Contact us to learn more.
