"Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination. They open up windows to the world and inspire us to explore and achieve, and contribute to improving our quality of life." -Sidney Sheldon

More than Just a Library

Programs & Services Offered by the Highwood Library & Community Center

The 501c3 organization supports the Highwood Library & Community Center's (HLCC) programs and services through donations and fundraising. The donations help bring additional innovative and cutting edge programs to enhance the current offerings. Please consider becoming a Friends member through our annual membership program, including our Club 365, or making a one-time donation, so HLCC can continue to support our residents. There's so much more the library can do but we need your help!
