Trinity County Library Benefit Fund

Two funds were established in 2004 in response to drastic reductions to the county library budget. To ensure the survival of the three public libraries serving Trinity County, the funds are administered by a steering committee of the Trinity County Friends of the Library. Donations may be made to both funds. The library's immediate needs will be served by the Trinity County Library Benefit Fund, including regular contributions from library supporters and proceeds from fundraising benefits. Present unmet library needs, such as building the library's database and providing substitute staff to keep facilities open, are being subsidized from this fund. The Friends continue to raise additional funds to spend directly on books, subscriptions, equipment, and supplies. (2004)
