Friends of the Trail Public Library
"Bringing Together Books and People ... with a little help from our friends"
The Friends of the Trail Public Library is a non-profit society. Our purpose is to:
Act as a liaison between the Library and the community, helping to promote and expand the Library's role in the Trail area.
Support Library services, programs and capital expenditures through a variety of fund raising and volunteer activities.
Since the Friends of the Trail Public Library was formed in the spring of 1996, it has:
Partnered with the Library to secure grants from the Provincial Government and other organizations.
Published the Trail Cooks Italian! cookbook.
