The Friends of the Madison Public Library (FMPL) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to maintaining the excellence of the library by providing supplemental funding and volunteer support for special programs and the library's collection. Money raised by FMPL makes it possible for the library to provide additional community services that it would be unable to support through with traditional funding alone. FMPL sponsored events and charitable activities help keep the Madison Public Library an outstanding cultural and learning center for this community.
