| Who are we? Friends of the Library is a group formed to support and promote the Limestone Township Library's activities. We want to help the library grow in any way we can. We host Book Sales, organize gatherings for the community at the Library. Below is our Mission Statement and how you can help. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson The Limestone Township Library Friends of the Library support and advocate for the patrons and staff of the Limestone Township Library by contributing to library programming, fundraising and enhancing the appearance of our library and community. In the spirit of friendship… We are the Friends of the Library. As a nonprofit corporation, we collect and administer gifts, bequests and other monies (outside of local tax receipts) that help make the library’s many programs become an integral part of our community. These additional funds help out library buy more books and replace damaged books. We also support programs including art time, summer reading, fall festival, holiday party with Santa, and more. Above all, friendship is a relationship… Follow our link to see what you can do to help us support the Limestone Township Library. Questions or

Friends of the Library Limestone Friendship Garden planting Apri 12th! We had a fun and fabulous time too! There were as many adults as children chatting and planting pots of veggies for the garden. It will be exciting to bring back those sprouted seeds to plant outdoors in the Library Friendship Garden. we were fortunate to have 4 Master Gardeners (Helen, Jan, Marti and Rick) from the U of I Extension Service to provide invaluable advice. Here are a few photos from the event. |  |
