Friends of WPLM
Our Friends group is a non-profit organization of local individuals who share a common belief that a good library/museum is essential to the intellectual and cultural growth of our community. We believe that having a strong public library and a local history museum are extremely valuable community assets. The Friends of WPLM, established on September 1, 2012, is a 501(c)(3) organization that helps support WPLM.
Our Friends group strives to help our community continue to improve.
