• Aid in providing funds to meet special library needs to the benefit of the general public.​

Friends of the Prince Township Public Library sell books in the library ranging from collectable and out of print books at competitive prices in the library. We also have books by some local authors.

​Call the Library to see when one of the Friends who is knowledgeable about these books will be at the library. You can also find some of these books online at amazon.ca and alibris.com. Other fundraisers may be organized to raise additional funds for the library.
