In a recent development, the non-profit organization known as Friends of the Library has undergone a change in leadership. The newly elected officers are President Thalia Young, Vice-President Samantha Wilson, Secretary Linda Romer, and Treasurer Dorothy Booth. This group is dedicated to supporting the Lawrence County Public Library branches in Lawrenceburg and Loretto by raising funds and increasing community awareness.
One of the primary ways in which the Friends of the Library generate revenue is through their annual Spring and Fall book sales. These events serve as significant fundraising opportunities for the organization. Additionally, they also collect funds through membership fees and donations from individuals who share their commitment to promoting literacy and access to resources within the community.
