FRIENDS OF PLANO PUBLIC LIBRARY
are community members who love libraries
and want to make Plano libraries
better than ever!

Friends of the Plano Public Library is a non-profit, membership organization dedicated to supporting Plano libraries. Its mission is to serve as an advocate in developing, maintaining, and improving public library resources, services, and facilities for all patrons. Friends also support PPLS through fundraising activities and events.

Members promote Plano Libraries and donate many hours to host a variety of programs including the annual Friends Book Sale. Funds raised are reinvested in the libraries. Friends donated more than $150,000 to the Plano Public Library System (PPLS) in 2009.

Friends donated $100,000 to PPLS at November 9, 2009 City Council meeting. Presenting the check to Plano Mayor, Phil Dyer are Scott Johnson, Chris Parr, Arlene Englert, Jenny Song, Bill Tempest and Fred Frawley.
