Support Berryville library

As an alumni of BHS, having attended all 12 years plus kindergarten in Berryville, the library was and continues to be an important part of my life. During National Friends of the Library Week, I would like to encourage you to give back to the community by joining the Friends of the Berryville Library and by donating to help them raise the needed funds to build a new library that will better serve the growing needs of our community.
