Meet the Richland Library Friends and Foundation

The Richland Library Friends and Foundation is the nonprofit arm of Richland Library, Richland County’s nationally recognized, award winning library system. The Friends and Foundation supports the Library’s inclusive environment that battles inequity on multiple fronts—from literacy and workforce development to social services—because increasing access to tools for advancement helps our entire community thrive.
