Club Spotlight: Friends of the Library

Kayile Hann

What is Friends of the Library? A club that promotes library and literacy while also reading books, kind of like a book club.
The idea that started it all: A group of book-lovers got together and formed a club to share their passion for books.

Club members: 16 students

Meets: Tuesdays in the library during Advocate

Upcoming events: North Texas Teen Book Festival, April 23

What do you want to be remembered for? “I want to be remembered for leading our club well and bonding with a great group of students over our shared love for books.” – president Alyssa Jingling

What do you want to see happen because of this club? “What I want to happen because of this club is to bring more of a passion for reading as well as a larger bond between students who just love to laugh and read.” – junior Katie Wiesolek

You know you’re in Friends of the Library when… “When you leave for three days just to go to the North Texas Teen Book Festival.” – sophomore Elizabeth Watson
