The Friends of the New Albany-Floyd County Public Library was founded in 1982. We have an active
membership of about 200. Our purpose is to:
- Be a liaison between the library management and the public
- Focus public attention on the library
- Stimulate use of the library's services
- New friends ... book lovers just like you.
- Voice in the decisions of the Friends.
- Opportunity to volunteer ... sorting and selling books, or working on other projects.
- A bargain, since membership dues are very affordable and tax deductible.
- A great sense of pride as you help our library and community!
