Friends of the Library are a wonderful support organization for libraries. Their goal is to support libraries by raising money for them and through advocacy. The Friends of Bond Memorial Library meet the first Tuesday each month September through May, taking the summer off. The Friends have completed several projects for Bond Memorial library throughout the years and the new Hickory Flat library more recently. Some larger projects that the Friends completed were the purchasing of flooring tile and cabinets for the Poff Meeting Room, acquiring professional signage for both library buildings, and sponsoring Summer Library Program and Ladies’ Day Out. The Friends’ most recent project was purchasing security camera systems for both libraries.
The Friends usually have a big fundraiser for the libraries: a Fish Fry in the fall each year.
