In 2000 the HCPL Foundation was launched to cultivate support and raise funds to enhance current library programs and support new initiatives. Our Foundation is a viable example of a public - private partnership in action. Harford County residents have a well-respected, innovative library system that is responsive to community needs.

The HCPL Foundation’s Board of Directors represents a cross section of the community and shares a commitment to improving our community.

Together we can combine both public and private resources to build a premiere library system recognized for delivering innovative services.
