About Us
Who are the Friends?
The Friends of Washoe County Library was established in 1980 and is a Nevada nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization supporting the Washoe County Library System in Reno, NV. Our Federal Tax ID is 94-2747114. Contributions or donations may be tax deductible under provisions of the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, 26 U.S.C. 170.
We raise money for the library system through periodic book sales, memberships, donations, and investments. We are an all-volunteer organization and do not have any paid employees.
What is the Friends Mission?
Our Mission
Backed by a belief that libraries are uniquely democratic, we promote, advocate, and seek funding to support the services, programs, and collections of the Washoe County Library System . Through our projects, we strive to give children an educational head start, encourage literacy, and foster lifelong learning and recreation for adults.
