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 month in the conference room of McCall Public Library or on Zoom.  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 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.

The Friends were active in donating the mural for the Children’s Section of McCall Public Library

“  What a wonderful adition to the children’s area! It’s also great to have local items included in the mural (Payette, Sharlie,etc.  )”
Mary Ann Traughber.

“  The new mural is such a wonderful addition to our library. The vibrant colors and imaginative literary depictions will surely inspire many generations of readers, now and to come.  ”
