If you would like to be a part of this legacy, donations or memorials are welcome. Monetary gifts may be directed to The Friends of the Grant County Library Foundation with a note or comment requesting that funds be added to the Lifetime Endowment.
Programs: The Friends help sponsor Library programs, including the Summer Reading Program, Summer Community Magic Show, Girl Power, Builder’s Club, Breakfast with Santa and Fall Concerts. The Friends also helped establish The Family Place Educational Play Area, Friends Used Book Cafe, and offer continued support for Library special needs.
