Established in 1978, the Friends of the Van Alstyne Public Library is proud to celebrate 48 years of supporting our community library with vital programs and services.  We are a 100% volunteer-run organization dedicated to enriching local minds and resources.  We are participating in our 1st North Texas Giving Day and every dollar we raise goes directly back into supporting our library.

Our refreshed facilities are officially open and ready for community connection!  While our modern upgrades created a vibrant setting for learning, one crucial piece is still missing: interactive tech for our youngest visitors.  We are raising funds to install dedicated Bilingual STEM and Literacy Computers for kids ages 2 to 12.  Help us spark a lifelong love of learning.  Your give today directly equips local kids with the early learning tools they need to thrive.

Our library is more than a building full of books, it's the heart and soul of the community that provides crucial services and programs for residents of all ages.
