About Us
Friends was
founded by the Junior Service League of Gallatin. Through annual membership
donations, memorials and fundraising events, Friends has gifted approximately
$65,000 to the library since its inception. Other moneys are reserved
to fulfill our commitment to the Downtown Library building fund and
to purchase new books for its spacious shelves. In addition to fully
funding the Summer Reading Program for children and teens, we have funded
a book drop, thousands of dollars in books and periodicals, technological
improvements, furniture, and other community services.
Mission Statement
The Friends
is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to enhance the services
and programs that our library provides in order to meet the educational
and enrichment needs of the community.
