 Established
in the early 1970s, the Friends of the Centreville
Regional Library have been active supporters of
the Library from its inception. Recent retirements and
relocations have put the organization into a downsizing
mode; though smaller, their support and commitment continues
to be strong.
Despite this transition, the Friends
maintain an ongoing book sale with proceeds benefiting
the Centreville Regional Library and the system as a
whole. Strong advocates for the public library, their
effective support for two bond issues providing capital
for both the property and building of the Centreville
Regional Library was particularly impressive. As they
look to the future, the Friends of the Centreville Regional
Library will continue to be a vital resource for the
Library and its community.
