Advocacy

Friends advocates on behalf of the library. We cannot advocate for individual candidates given our 501(c) 3 status but do campaign for issues related to the library.

Recently, Friends of the Prescott Public Library endorsed a sales tax initiative and began an ad campaign in The Daily Courier to support its passage. Both hard copy and online ads ran for two months before the election.

Two months after the successful passage of the tax, the mayor and city council added funding allowing the library to re-open on Sundays.
