Supporting the Library
Since 1982, Friends has given nearly a million dollars to the Mount Prospect Public Library. Through these contributions, the Friends has helped the Library offer programs, purchase equipment, and provide services it might not have otherwise been able to support. Raising its funds through quarterly book sales and charitable donations, the Friends partners with the Library to help it cultivate community connections, inspire learning, and enrich lives.
