There comes a time when devoted users of our public libraries desire to give back to the very institutions that have helped enrich their lives over the years. Often these individuals decide to donate a great amount of their time and energy to support a library branch near and dear to them. They team up with other neighbors who share their passion and form a non-profit Friends of the Library group. From then on, they become dedicated to raising funds and assisting with innovative programs to help their neighborhood library thrive as a community centerpiece of reading, learning and growing for all. The Lee County Library System values the support of the Friends groups for its 13 library branches. If you're interested in becoming one of these staunch supporters or would like to know more about their valuable efforts, scan the list below to contact the Friends group for the library nearest you.
