Historically this all-volunteer nonprofit raised funds for library programs and services by holding sales of used books. However, due to a reorganization of the library space used for these sales, these sales stopped at the end of 2017. In 2018 and 2019 the Friends of the Library (FOL) funded, staffed, and sponsored a total of 10 summer programs that featured professional performers for local children with a total attendance of 2,211. Unfortunately, the pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 and 2021 series. The FOL plans to sponsor community programs again in the summer of 2022, in addition to supporting selected local literacy projects throughout the year. Anyone wanting to join the FOL may email friendsofthecclibrary@gmail.com

All this FOL does is sell books. They do no actual other fundraisers for the Library System. They really need to upgrade how they do things and hold a membership drive. I believe the same exact people have been in the group for 10+ years.
