The Friends of Ygnacio Valley Library is a non-profit community group dedicated to supporting our local public library and its many patrons.
We sponsor fun and educational programs for kids, teens and adults at the Library. We help build the book and media collection and keep the library open extra hours. By collecting and selling used books, CDs and DVDs, we are able to provide a great source of affordable books and media and we raise funds to be used for the library.
