The Peninsula Friends of the Library is an all volunteer membership organization founded in 1961 to enhance the services and programs of our Peninsula libraries. Membership fees and funds raised through book sales, The Library Shop at Peninsula Center Library, and other fundraising events are used to provide ongoing support for many library services and programs including:

• Summer Reading Program
• Sunday Hours at the Peninsula Center Library
• Internet access at all 3 libraries
• Volunteer Recognition program
• Library Update newsletter
• Special purchases of items for the library collections, furnishings, and equipment

The Friends typically accept gifts of books for the book sales and of cash. Donations to the Friends of the Library are tax-deductible under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
