Friends of the Atmore Public Library,

formed to provide support for the Library,

is funded through memberships and donations

of caring citizens who realize the importance

 and value of this resource to our community

and the surrounding areas.

During 2008, contributions to the Friends of the Library helped match funds for a children's book grant. They also provided three entertainers for our 2008 Summer Reading Program.  Attendance for all 6 programs was 621 children and 275 adults.  Over 2,250 children's books were checked out during the six-week program.  The Friends purchased a multimedia projector which is being used  for children and adult programs.  These contributions enabled us to better serve our patrons.

Without our Friends of the Library we could not possibly provide the level of service we do.  Of the 24 computers in the library, the Friends helped purchase 21 of these computers through matching grant funds.

 THANK YOU FRIENDS!
