Budget
FY 2020 - 2022
FADL is honored to serve the residents of the City of Ferndale. We continually strive to provide resources, services, and programming that reflect the needs and interests of our community. It is through our local engagement that we learn what acquisitions and experiences to try next, so that we can create a destination in Ferndale that we are all proud of. We will continue to move forward with keeping the library facilities updated and responsive to modern needs, providing the best possible return on investment with funding, and planning for the future through responsible fiscal management. Thank you for continuing to support your local library!
