Friends of the Coastal Region Library
The Friends of the Library are non-profit organizations dedicated to enhancing public library service for the citizens of Citrus County. Friends are people who love books, love to read, and want to help others enjoy the pleasure of reading. Friends raise money to support the library through memberships, used-book sales, promotional item sales, special events, and donations.
Meetings & Membership
Membership in this organization is open to all individuals and organizations that are interested in the purposes set out in the By-Laws.
A nominating committee appointed by the President makes the selection for officers. The chosen slate of officers is posted at the library prior to the annual meeting. Election and installation take place at the annual meeting.
