FoKL’s Mission is to encourage and support new and existing local Friends groups, to facilitate the exchange of useful information among organizations of Friends, and to advocate for excellent library services.

Your membership sustains FoKL. We have nonprofit status from the IRS and operate as a volunteer organization. Importantly, our budget emphasizes our mission – 75% annually is spent on grants to Friends groups and recognition of outstanding Library Friends.

We invite you to explore this website to read about our grants and awards, and learn how you can join FoKL in showing our love for Kansas libraries!
