The Board of the Friends of the Marin County Free Library focuses on programs and services for the entire County Library system. We also have Friends chapters at the five regional libraries (Civic Center, Corte Madera, Fairfax, Marin City, and the Novato Libraries). Our income is from sales at our used book store, the Book Place, and membership donations.  When you Join, you may designate your donation for your favorite branch, or give to the County Friends overall.
