Our Vision Our vision is to be a leading library foundation. We strive to build public and private initiatives that provide opportunities to enrich life-long learning throughout our community. We make a good library system great.

Our Values Literacy and Lifelong Learning Libraries measure their missions against what the public wants, what services they can deliver and what information is accessible. Literacy comes in many forms, from printed materials to digital resources. By supporting Fort Vancouver Regional Libraries' mission, FVRL Foundation endorses universal access to numerous sources of information that in turn promote literacy and lifelong learning. Passion for Reading Reading is a life-enhancing activity for people of every age, religion and ethnic background. Creatively crafted words transport readers to diverse places, times and ways of thinking. Reading shares information and helps people to relate better to others Advocacy The intellectual development and depth of a community is strengthened when it is taught to value literacy, reading and lifelong learning.
