The Friends help develop a public understanding of the Library and provide funds that would not otherwise be available through membership dues, notable contributions, annual auctions, and used book sales. Proceeds benefit the Library by helping purchase books, furniture, equipment, and materials. Friends also provide the library staff with advanced training, education, and appreciation rewards for their fine effort to keep the Library a “State of the Art” facility and source of pride in Baxter County. In addition, friends donate their time and hard work to our various programs and services. Friends also encourage gifts of books and materials to the Library.

Since their founding in 1980, the Friends have given over $600,000.00. If you would like to join the Friends, become a Friend of the Library today! Membership dues are $5.00 per year. Ask for a membership form at the Circulation Desk. Membership dues are due annually, and membership lasts from January to December. Dues can be paid at any meeting or the Library Circulation Desk.
