Who are the Friends?

The Friends of the McCall Public Library, working cooperatively with the Library Board and library Director, promote the library as a center for learning by implementing community programs and projects. This includes the raising and expending of funds and the acceptance of gifts.
Who can join?
We meet every other month in the conference room of McCall Public Library.  We welcome all who are interested. 
What do we do?

• We sell used books at the Pump House – proceeds from our sales go towards materials and equipment for the library.
• Larger book sales are held at the library during Winter Carnival and Labor Day.
• We develop special library projects such as Children’s section remodel, purchasing large specialty items, etc.
• We support programs with materials and/or funding.

How to join?
If you would like to join or get more information about our organization stop by the pumphouse or library during business hours.
