Monroe Community Library Legacy Fund

One important role the Friends and Foundation plays is to provide major financial support for capital improvements to the Corvallis-Benton County Library facilities. The historic Monroe Community Library building is operated by the Benton County Library district but owned by the Monroe community, so the building is not supported by county taxes.

To plan for the Monroe library building’s preservation into the future, the Friends and Foundation partnered with the South Benton Community Enhancement Association and the City of Monroe in 2019 to establish a permanent fund. To become a supporter, go to monroe-community-library-legacy-fund
