Rappahannock County Library

About the Friends

A volunteer 501(c)(3) that raises money for the Rappahannock County Public Library and runs the Book Barn.

Our mission

To support the Rappahannock County Library with funds and programming that enriches the lives of county residents and library patrons of all ages.

In practice that means we run the Book Barn, we raise money, and we hand it to the library.

Who we are not

We are not the library, and we are not the Library Board of Trustees. The library is a county institution with its own director and its own governing board. We are the independent nonprofit alongside it that raises money and runs the Barn. We are also not Friends of the Rappahannock, the river conservation group, and we are not the Friends of the Central Rappahannock Regional Library down in Fredericksburg. Good organizations, all. Different ones.
