We are looking for new members for the Creswell Public Library Foundation! This foundation is an important fundraising arm of the library and was the original driving force for our little library. But now the foundation is in need of new members. If you are interested in helping our library continue to thrive but aren't able to volunteer more than once or twice a month, this is a great way to help out. Contact Nick at nick@creswell-library.org to learn more!

Join us every Tuesday morning at 11am for coffee and books at our book club. No need to stress about finding the book club book and staying on pace with everyone else.
