Join the Friends of the Library
The Friends of the Library group meets 3 or 4 times a year to plan fundraising
activities; some Friends volunteer at the circulation desk or help with
special library programs.
We cannot emphasize enough
the importance of an active Friends group. Staff alone could not
handle all the activity in our library. Volunteer Friends make a
big difference!
If
you have time to devote to
the library, the Friends of the Library would welcome you! Contact
the library at director@wildroselibrary.org or
920-622-3835 to find out how you can join.
