Members will receive an email copy of the new bulletin called Focus on Friends which is dedicated to helping you become better Friends as you work to improve library services in your community.

We plan to publish Focus on Friends frequently to provide timely information that will be helpful for Friends groups.

Along the way we want this bulletin to be an interactive format where you share ideas about your fundraising projects and other types of activities that other Friends can use at their libraries.
