Morro Bay Friends of the Library (MBFOL) is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a proud history of supporting our Morro Bay public library.

Our goals are to:

  • Raise awareness of and promote the library to its greatest possible use
  • Provide financial support for the Morro Bay library and supporting the development and funding of its programming
  • Advocate for our unique Morro Bay library community and patrons, helping extend the library’s offerings to serve best serve their needs and interests
  • Provide volunteering and other opportunities for patrons to share their enthusiasm for books and libraries

MBFOL members and their board have made significant contributions benefitting the Morro Bay library and its patrons over the years, including the funding of a major remodel. This group is committed to making our Morro Bay library the best it can be!

We raise funds in a number of ways to support these goals. Our primary fundraising centers around the sale of gently used books and media. We host periodic booksales (always a hit!) and run a MBFOL bookstore located right inside the Morro Bay library. All proceeds from sales go directly to supporting our MBFOL mission. Significant support is also provided through the generous contributions of our members via annual dues and from other donations.
