The Friends of the Wilson County Public Library is a public charity organization which promotes the use of the library. Members raise money for a variety of library-related programs and needs which are not met through traditional county government funding. For example, the Friends installed a state-of-the-art sound system in the large assembly room at the main library. This room is in constant use by the library for its programs and also serves as a meeting space for various civic and community groups.
