Welcome to Friends of Prescott Public Library
Our mission is to enhance the library through fundraising, advocacy, and volunteerism
Each year the library staff provides the Board of the Friends wit a funding request. These funds are used to cover costs of programs, supplies and other support, but not for staff salaries and benefits; those costs remain the responsibility of the City. Through book sale and fundraising efforts, Friends of the Prescott Public Library provides approximately $120,000 annually to the library.
The Library is OPEN!
Prescott Public Library will reopen on Tuesday, August 25 at 10 a.m. with limited entry and services.

We Need Your Support
Our Impact
There are Friends of the library and then there are the Friends. The Friends were organized to help a good library become even better. Since its founding in 1968, the Friends of the Prescott Public Library have raised enough money to enhance Prescott’s Living Room. The Friends also accept and administer funds given to the benefit of the library. Membership dues, donations of books and magazines and contributions and bequests turn into counteless library services and Friends of the Prescott Public Library programs. It’s magic.
