The Friends Support the Library's 2010-11 Budget

The Friends urge you to support full funding for the many services and resources at the Central Rappahannock Regional Library. These funds will restore the book budget, and allow the library to staff and operate the new England Run branch.

Click here to read about the CRRL Budget Cuts and action needed to restore the budget in fiscal year 2010.

Friends of the Library Newsletter



The CRRL is facing huge financial challenges due to a $1.2 million cut to the library's operating budget. At the same time, demand for library services continues to increase.

Read the Friends of the Library newsletter to find out how you can help us reach our goal to secure full funding from our localities for the 2010-2011 fiscal year.
