We are a volunteer-run organization, and we are always looking for new Friends to help in a variety of ways.
Landscaping
Do you have a green thumb? Do you like working in a garden but don’t have your own space in the city? We are currently renovating the two gardens in front of our library. We need help with garden cleanup, weeding, planting, and planning our next planting season.
Publicity
Are you a writer who wants to help get the word out about all of the events happening at our library? We are looking for Friends to write short articles for local publications.
Programming
Are you an event planner at heart? We need creative organized people to help come up with new ideas for community programs.
Membership outreach
Do you like to make connections with people? We need outgoing friendly people to help reach new Friends in the community.
Advocacy
Do you want to make a difference for generations to come? We need motivated community-oriented volunteers to help advocate for building needs during the BPL Programming Study.
We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer-run organization. Every dollar that you donate goes straight back to into our library. Thank you for helping to make our community library a safe and welcoming place for everyone!
