The Harris County Friends of the Library (HCFOL) is having a fundraiser during Library Lovers Month (February). The fundraiser will support the Authorama program the Library features in the summer.

HCFOL works to support all Friends’ groups in the Harris County Library community.
HCFOL has always believed Jorge Luis Borges (poet and short storywriter) when he said, “I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.”
