About the Friends

The Friends of Wadsworth Public Library raises funds to support Library programs and operations through its popular biannual book sales, membership drives and other fund raising activities.

You can support the work of the Friends by donating gently used books, movies, and compact discs or by making a financial donation. Money raised by the Friends is especially vital to the library's annual summer reading program which is strongly focused on early literacy for children and continuity of reading development for older youth.

In addition to donating books and joining the Friends, you can also give of your time. Our biannual book sales are powered by the hard work of dedicated volunteers. Behind the scenes preparation for our book sales is ongoing, all year long. Contact the Friends today to find out how you can start volunteering now.
