Welcome to the Placerville Friends of the Library! Our Mission Statement The mission of the Placerville Friends of the Library is • to support the library, their patrons and staff • to support the library with community outreach programs, services and facilities • to enrich the lives of Placerville residents by advocating the use of our library • to support our library through fundraising efforts which include memberships, book sales, gifts and endowments About the Friends We are a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization supporting our community library. Funds raised by the Friends are used to purchase books and to support its educational programs. Unlike the other libraries in El Dorado County, the Placerville Main Library receives no specific direct tax support. It must rely on the Friends of the Library to provide the services patrons need—which makes it that much more critical to its success. |
