About Friends of the Dallas Public Library

Friends of the Dallas Public Library is a trusted non-profit that works in partnership with the City of Dallas. We have raised and donated more than $60,000,000 and countless volunteer hours to the Dallas Public Library system to ensure these programs and services continue.

Contributions to the Friends fund:

Transformative Impact: Your contributions help fund essential programs, facilities, and supplies, ensuring our libraries remain vital community hubs.

Innovative Initiatives: From early childhood initiatives to workforce development to the SMART Summer Program, we’re committed to reaching every corner of Dallas, bringing the library to everyone.

Cultural Enrichment: Funding library programs that reflect our diverse community by funding enriching experiences that celebrate literature and the arts.

Legacy of Advocacy: Since advocating for a new Main Library in the 1950s, we continue to advocate at City Hall for library funding and have supported every bond issue that expanded access to our neighborhoods, creating a library system that truly belongs to the community.

Rare Treasures: Our dedication to collecting significant works—like those in the Virginia Lazenby O’Hara Rare and Fine Books Collection—preserves our cultural heritage for generations to come.
