Why become a dues-paying member of the Friends of Why become a dues-paying member of the Friends of the Fresno County Public Library? Why not!?

For just $25 a year, you can help fund snacks, craft supplies, programs, and performances across Fresno County! Plus, if you choose to join a branch group, they'll receive at least $10 of your dues, so your money can stay even closer to home!

Getting involved at your local branch is the best way to make sure your neighborhood has the kind of programs and services you'd really like to see there-- and it sometimes even leads to bigger, better buildings, as in the case of the Politi branch! Advocacy from the Friends helped make it happen!

Join online today at fresnofol.org/join, or find a membership brochure at your local branch!

This year's @fresnolibrary Annual Poetry Contest r This year's @fresnolibrary Annual Poetry Contest received 299 submissions! This really is the land of poets! Congratulations to all the winners, as well as everyone who entered. Sunday's awards ceremony was packed!

Our President, Shannon Wise, was in attendance to say a few words about why we do the work that we do. We sponsor the prizes for this event each year and we're very happy to do it! We sincerely thank the judges and the Library staff that make it happen every year, as well as everyone who gives poetry a try, whether it be for the first time or the fiftieth.
