Did you know??
The share of City taxes that the Franklin Public Library received in 2024 is 6.15%. This translates to 24.9 cents per $1,000 in assessed value. For example, the average Franklin home assessed at $400,000 would pay $99.60 per year for the Library.

$100 per year gives our community access to all that FPL has to offer - books, movies, audiobooks, computer access, Explorer Passes, our Tool Library, CreateSpace, library programming for all ages, and so much more! FPL is the best value in the city. If you love FPL and what it has to offer, and want FPL to continue to be able to serve our community, please give a shout out of support to your alderperson today!
