The Friends of the Torrance Library is an independent, nonprofit organization whose mission is to raise funds for the Torrance Public Library's adult and children's programs and new library services. We were organized in 1968 as a 501(c)(3) corporation.
Through membership dues, contributions, and book sales, the Friends have donated almost $2 million to the library. We operate with minimal overhead. All the work is done by volunteers; we have no paid staff. All funds raised go directly to support the library.
