Letter: Friends of the Library 2023 membership drive

Posted by Staff on February 9, 2023 - 6:00am

Friends of the Bluffton Public Library 
145 South Main Street 
Bluffton, Ohio 45817

Dear Friends and Prospective Members, 

It's time again to think about supporting the Friends of Bluffton Library by renewing your membership. The Friends now have over 40 members, and we look forward to continued growth. 

The Friends of Bluffton Public Library is a service organization--our main goal is raising money for library programs that can no longer be funded by the library board due to cuts in state funding. This past year the Friends have provided money for library programs, needs, and projects. These programs include early literacy and youth programs, adult programs, outreach and continuing staff development.
