Support Us

There are multiple ways to support your library - from monetary and book donations to volunteering your time! Please consider giving what you can to help FPL continue to provide state-of-the-art events, services, and spaces. 

Through innovative services and resources, Fayetteville Public Library is incredibly responsive to the needs of the community. Yet public funding alone isn’t enough to support the ongoing transformation.  Tax rates fluctuate and the allotment the library receives from the City is dependent on decisions made by City leadership. Those dollars, while great, are not sufficient to support the high-quality programming and services that FPL provides to its diverse and growing community.  FPL is also supported by the FPL Foundation staff and board who are constantly looking to diversify income sources.   

And we could not do it without our volunteers! FPL has a volunteer base of close to 300 people, both individuals, and groups, that give their time to support the community.
