Become a Member
Are you interested in becoming a Friend of the Round Rock Public Library? There are two ways you can become a member today:
Business Memberships
Funding for the Round Rock Public Library comes from several sources, primarily City of Round Rock. Friends of RRPL generously contribute much-needed funds for library resources that would otherwise not be available. Your membership in Friends furthers the appreciation of books, literacy and education in the community, supports adult and children’s programs, sponsors programs of community engagement, provides the BookPage (a free monthly reader’s guide), and operates the Friends bookstore, from which proceeds are returned to the Library. Members of the Friends also serve as advocates for the Round Rock Public Library.
You and your business will gain:
- Highly visible support in your community as a library champion
- Recognition as a Friends Business Partner in our e-newsletter
