What is the Longview Public Library Foundation?

The Foundation promotes and supports the Longview Public Library, joining its efforts with those of the City of Longview and Gregg County for the benefit of all citizens.

The Foundation’s Board of Directors meets biannually to distribute the interest earned on its perpetual fund according to the needs generated by the library patrons and the library staff.
