The BCLS has an active local Friends of the Library group, which is a part of the Friends of Mississippi Libraries.  BCLS Friends support all activities of the various branches of the BCLS.  They sponsor an annual book sale, an on-going book sale, Summer Library Program activities, as well as other special programs within the BCLS.  They are also responsible for assisting the BCLS in local support for various grant opportunities.  Any citizen may join the Friends by contacting the BCLS at: 662-843-2774, the local library branch, or by visiting our Friends of the Library webpage and printing the application.
