About Us
Our Mission

Our Programs
The King County Library System Foundation creates opportunities to bring literacy, learning, and library access to all members of our diverse community. The KCLS Foundation provides the venture capital for library initiatives that address community needs, the funding for value-added programs and resources, and the vision to ensure that our public library system is vibrant, relevant, and central to our lives.
