The Friends of the Marion Public Library Foundation has been organized to raise money for the library to:

• perpetuate excellence in library service
• allow for increased levels of financial support for materials and programs, and
• protect the library and its programs and services from the uncertainties of public funding.

Proceeds from the endowment interest income will be used to provide:

• additional library materials
• upgrades in technology resources
• sponsorship of special lectures and programs
• staff development and training opportunities
• special collections enhancements, and
• other special projects and needs identified by the library board of trustees.

For further information about the Foundation call the library at 377-3412.
