Friends of the Library Support Digitization Project

Friends of the Petoskey Library President Gayle Mroczkowski presents Valerie Meyerson, Petoskey District Library Director, with a check for $22,000 to support a newspaper digitization project.

Annual Dinner Party

Thank you to all who attended the annual meeting and dinner held at the Petoskey-Bay View Country Club.  We welcomed Gayle Mroczkowski as the new FOPL President; featured speaker, author Beverly Kay Brandt, gave a captivating presentation; and the silent auction was full of wonderful items whose proceeds fund library materials.
