The
Friends of the Burke Centre Library was organized
in June, 2002 after the site had been approved
for a library and the county had purchased the
property.
The library opened
for business on June 28, 2008. Our Friends group
currently has in excess of 80 members.

The
Friends of the Burke Centre Library were
active and successful in raising funds
in anticipation of the opening of the Burke
Centre Library. We have held book sales,
accepted donations from other organizations,
and collected dues from our members. The
Friends also sponsored a statue as part
of the Art in the Pages program conducted by
the Library Foundation. The statue now
stands in front of the library.
