The Friends of the Boise Public Library is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that raises funds to benefit the library through book and media sales and memberships.
Signature library programs that the Friends have sponsored include Summer Reading, the Boise Comic Arts Festival, Ultimate Book Nerd, Kindergarten Readiness, Idaho Family Reading Week, and scholarships for library staff pursuing higher education.
To raise funds, we sell affordable donated books and media to members of the Boise community at Tree City Books, our bookstore at the Main Library!, community book sales, and online.
