The Friends Foundation of the Wicomico Public Library is a member-supported group of library advocates and fundraisers. Every dollar raised from memberships, book sales, and fundraising events goes directly into supporting programs and services in the library system.
Register for a membership today and know that those funds will soon be a Summer Reading kit for a child, a software license for an adult literacy learner, a new 3D printer for STEM programming, or a comfortable chair for patrons in a library branch. Demonstrate to our elected officials and other community leaders the robust, continuing base of support upon which our library system thrives.
