The Friends support library activities, library staff and library customers in a variety of ways. They are especially interested in those related towards children and young adult reading, and the Inquiring Mind series. Memorial donations to the Friends are used to purchase special and appropriate books. The Friends were instrumental in helping to establish the library capital facilities area and supporting the successful levy. They helped both monetarily and with donated labor during the library enlargement and remodel. The downstairs meeting room space was finished primarily through the efforts of the North Kitsap Friends of the Library and other local service organizations. The room is scheduled and rented by many local groups through the city of Poulsbo ’s Parks and Recreation department. The art committee of the Friends selected art purchased by funds raised by the Friends to be placed throughout the library. They continue to add pieces for the enjoyment of all visitors to the library. The Friends helped with the landscaping around the library building, which was originally funded by a generous donor. Several of them continue to work diligently on the grounds.
