What we do:
Events sponsored by the Friends

Friends of the Kootenai Shoshone Area Libraries is proud to sponsor events for and at our local libraries. You can find events throughout the community year round!

Friends of the KSA Libraries exist to help our libraries serve you better, through program support as well as volunteering at events. Below is a list of some of the projects we have supported over the years. Your support of the Friends Book Stores and semi-annual sales keeps the Friends alive and we in turn work tirelessly to improve your library experience.

Money raised by the Friends benefit all the KSAL branch libraries. Grants have included the following support:
