Who are the Friends of the Karl Junginger Memorial Library?

We are an organization that loves the services provided by the Karl Junginger Memorial Library and we work to support everything they do. The mission of the Friends is to promote the usefulness of Library programs, resources, and to seek support for the Library through voluntary services and monetary gifts.  We invite everyone to help the Library by becoming a Friends supporter.

Thanks to your support through membership dues and donations, the Friends were able to support the Library in many ways during 2022. Below are just a few:

  • Love Your Library Tote Bags
  • Scholastic Book Club – Winter Reading Program
  • Bingo for Books – Scholastic
  • Prizes for various Reading Programs / Challenges
  • T-shirts and Supplies for the Wiener & Kraut 5K Run/Walk
  • Aunt Flow Menstrual Products and Dispenser

How does being a “friend” of the library benefit me?
Besides the fact that your dues are a tax-deductible charitable gift, you are supporting a place whose primary responsibility is supporting you! Of course, there are other perks that will arise throughout the year as well.  Free admission to Friends Craft Night events at the library, free admission to the annual mini-golf mixer in January and so much more! 

Friend us on Facebook by liking our Friends of the Karl Junginger Memorial Library page. Here you will stay informed about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities.
