The Friends of the Okemos Library was started in 1953 by a group interested in supporting library services in the Okemos area. As the organization has grown its primary mission remains the same: supporting the Okemos Library financially by providing additional programs, services, and activities that enrich the library patron's experience. We accomplish this through projects like our quarterly book sales, speaker programs, our newsletter, and other events. Read more about our Mission here and learn how you can join the Friends here.
