Friends of the Tualatin Public Library About us |
Friends of the Tualatin Public Library is a member-supported nonprofit organization that advocates, fundraises, and provides support for the Tualatin Library. The organization was formed in 2004 by a small group of dedicated library volunteers. We began by having small book sales at Haggen and Starbucks. Soon we set up a book sale shelf in the library. In 2005 the Friends achieved nonprofit status with the State of Oregon and 501(c)(3) designation with the IRS, ensuring that all donations to the organization are tax-exempt.
When the new Tualatin Library was completed in 2008, it included prime space for our ongoing book sale and a workroom where we sort books and handle administrative tasks. The Friends have donated more than $50,000 to the library to assist with the purchase of materials and to support programs that would otherwise be out of reach with the normal library budget. Meetings Friends meetings are bimonthly on the 2nd Tuesday at 7:00 pm in the Library Community Room. The months we meet are January, March, May, July, September and November. We hold our annual meeting on the 2nd Tuesday of October. Newsletters Our newsletters are full of information about our past activities and events. Check out the newsletter archive.
