The Questa Public Library gets by with a LOT of help from our Friends!

Established in 2011, the Friends of the Questa Public Library have raised more than $150,000 over the years, through book and bake sales, donations, and grants. These funds have supported children’s programming, provided furniture and equipment for the library’s new wing, paid for the construction of the outdoor patio and garden, and contributed to new and emerging technology.

But money isn’t the only thing the Friends contribute—last year, members dedicated their time supporting programs and fundraising events, author talks, summer reading programs, and art happenings at the library. In addition, the Friends have rallied countless times over the years to advocate for adequate library funding and facility expansion and upgrades.

October 20 through 26, 2024 is the 19th Annual National Friends of Libraries Week, and it’s the perfect opportunity for our community to give our Friends a big shout-out for all they do to make a positive impact on us every single day.

The Friends of the Questa Public Library are always looking for new members and volunteers. They have fun while working to make our community better. Becoming a member is affordable and easy. Just ask a librarian staff member for an application.

Joining the Friends of the Questa Library is a terrific way to make new friends of your own, give back to our community, and make the library even better.
