Who are the Friends?
The Friends of the BWG Library (FOL) is a dedicated group of volunteers who believe that a great library is essential to a great community. Through fundraising initiatives and advocacy, the Friends provide funding for specialized projects, equipment, and collections that fall outside the library's regular operating budget.
