Who We Are
The Friends of the Carrollton Public Library is a 501(c)3 nonprofit whose object is to promote the Carrollton Library as a cultural, educational and recreational asset of the community, to focus public attention on the library in order to stimulate the use of the library's resources, to encourage and receive gifts and raise funds to provide library needs beyond the normal library budget, and to provide support through volunteer services.
All youth services events at the library are funded by the Friends of the Carrollton Public Library. See our News page for a list of some of the projects and programs we've supported recently.
