Friends is a not-for-profit organization founded in 1982. Our mission is to support our community’s most family-friendly resource, the Whitefish Bay Public Library, by providing financial and volunteer resources that will have a positive impact on the library and its patrons.

Monthly board meetings are held September through June on the 3rd Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. in the 2nd floor library meeting room.
