Friends of the Library

The Friends’ Mission

The Friends of the New Richmond Community Library supports engaging and inclusive services, programs, and materials. We advocate for the library through fundraising and volunteerism, so that we may enrich lives and strengthen our whole community.

Become a Friend!

The Friends of the Library Board typically meets on the second Wednesday of each month at 4:30 pm at the Library. Meetings may be skipped due to weather, we encourage you to verify that the meeting will take place by calling 715-243-0431.

If you are interested in getting involved, please call the Library at 715-243-0431, or email the Friends at [email protected].

Volunteers

Several Friends members have inquired about supporting youth programs at the Library. In response to these inquires, we have developed a youth program, called Sensory Play Time, that is in need of volunteers from the Friends. Funding for this youth program is made possible by the Nancy Hansen Memorial. Since volunteers will be interacting with youth for this program, these volunteers must complete the Library’s volunteer application, which includes a background check. Please ask the staff at the library’s service desk for a volunteer application.
