In the past\, the Friends’ membership has been close to 200.\nIt is currently closer to 50. The community and those who benefit from library services are encouraged to buy a membership and help support the Franklin County libraries. \nThe Friends of the Franklin County Public Libraries (FFCPL) was established in 1994. The organization was instrumental in the building of two county libraries. With funds donated to the Friends\, the current Carrabelle library building was opened in 2002. In addition\, through donations\, grants\, and a USDA loan\, the current Eastpoint building and administrative offices were opened in 2013. The Eastpoint building is completely maintained by the Friends. Franklin County rents the building from the Friends\, which helps to offset some of the maintenance costs. The Friends provides funding for the Summer Reading Program as well as other programs throughout the year. \nIn addition\, the Friends annual meeting will be held during that week\, on Wednesday\, October 19\, 2022\, at 5 pm at the Carrabelle branch.
