The Friends of the Kenton County Public Library is a volunteer organization designed to provide community support for the library system.
We accept donations at any of our branches. Since the Friends are located at the Independence Branch it is preferred that large donations go there. However, if that isn't possible it is helpful to schedule the date/time so we can coordinate with someone to help unload.
