Our Mission:
The Friends of the EPL was formed in 1986 with the mission of helping their Local Library. Why does the library need help? The library provides services for all individuals, families, and organizations within our community. At this time the State and local funding is not enough to support all of the Library's programs and outreach. The Friends of the EPL members provide financial and community support to help the library. We gather funding through programs, fundraising events and private donations. To be a Friend of the Library is to become a Friend to the community.
Our group is committed to helping improve our library's facilities, programs and services. We've funded, in full or in part, the following:
- Hotspots
- Baby packets for parents & newborns
- Annual Reading Programs
- Online research databases
- Book discussion books
- special programs like Amazon Smile*
- BRIDGES and other online resources
- Large print books
Contributions to the Friends are qualified for tax exemption under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
