Key Facts About TempFund

Investment Objective

The investment objective of TempFund (the “Fund”), a series of BlackRock Liquidity Funds (the “Trust”), is to seek as high a level of current income as is consistent with liquidity and stability of principal.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold Institutional Shares of TempFund.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses

(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)


	Institutional Shares

Management Fee	0.18	%

Distribution (12b-1) Fees	None

Miscellaneous/Other Expenses¹	0.01	%


Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.19	%
Fee Waivers and/or Expense Reimbursements²	(0.01	)%


Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waivers and/or Expense Reimbursements²	0.18	%

Miscellaneous/Other Expenses have been restated and do not include the fees paid by the Fund in the prior fiscal year to participate in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Treasury Guarantee Program”) since those fees are non-recurring. The Fund paid fees in the aggregate amount of 0.04% of the Fund’s net asset value as of September 19, 2008 to participate in the Treasury Guarantee Program.

As described in the “Management of the Funds” section of the Fund’s prospectus on pages 57-60, BlackRock Institutional Management Corporation, the Fund’s investment manager, has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse ordinary operating expenses in order to keep combined Management Fees and Miscellaneous/Other Expenses from exceeding 0.18% of average daily net assets until March 1, 2011. The agreement may be terminated upon 90 days’ notice by a majority of the non-interested trustees of the Trust or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.

Example:

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:


	1 Year		3 Years		5 Years		10 Years

Institutional Shares	$	18	$	60	$	106	$	242

Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund

TempFund invests in a broad range of U.S. dollar-denominated money market instruments, including government, U.S. and foreign bank, and U.S. commercial obligations and repurchase agreements secured by such obligations. The Fund invests in a portfolio of securities maturing in 397 days or less (with certain exceptions) that will have a dollar-weighted average maturity of 90 days or less.

In addition, the Fund may also invest in mortgage- and asset-backed securities, short-term obligations issued by or on behalf of states, territories, and possessions of the United States, the District of Columbia, and their respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions and derivative securities such as beneficial interests in municipal trust certificates and partnership trusts (“Municipal Obligations”), variable and floating rate instruments and when-issued and delayed delivery securities.

The securities purchased by the Fund are subject to the quality, diversification, and other requirements of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and other rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Fund will only purchase securities that present minimal credit risk as determined by the Fund’s investment manager, BlackRock Institutional Management Corporation (“BIMC”), pursuant to guidelines approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”).

Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund

Risk is inherent in all investing. The value of your investment in TempFund, as well as the amount of return you receive on your investment, may fluctuate significantly from day to day and over time. You may lose part or all of your investment in the Fund or your investment may not perform as well as other similar investments. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. The following is a summary description of certain risks of investing in the Fund.

Credit Risk — Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make principal and interest payments when due. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the Fund’s investment in that issuer.

Foreign Exposure Risk — Securities issued or supported by foreign entities, including foreign banks and corporations, may involve additional risks and considerations. Extensive public information about the foreign issuer may not be available, and unfavorable political, economic or governmental developments in the foreign country involved could affect the payment of principal and interest.

Interest Rate Risk — Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a debt security may fall when interest rates rise. In general, the market price of debt securities with longer maturities will go up or down more in response to changes in interest rates than the market price of shorter term securities.

Additionally, securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies, instrumentalities and sponsored enterprises have historically involved little risk of loss of principal if held to maturity. However, due to fluctuations in interest rates, the market value of such securities may vary during the period shareholders own shares of the Fund.

Market Risk and Selection Risk — Market risk is the risk that one or more markets in which the Fund invests will go down in value, including the possibility that the markets will go down sharply and unpredictably. Selection risk is the risk that the securities selected by Fund management will underperform the markets, the relevant indices or the securities selected by other funds with similar investment objectives and investment strategies. This means you may lose money.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risks — Mortgage- and asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables held in trust. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to “prepayment risk” and “extension risk.” Prepayment risk is the risk that, when interest rates fall, certain types of obligations will be paid off by the obligor more quickly than originally anticipated and the Fund may have to invest the proceeds in securities with lower yields. Extension risk is the risk that, when interest rates rise, certain obligations will be paid off by the obligor more slowly than anticipated causing the value of these securities to fall. Small movements in interest rates (both increases and decreases) may quickly and significantly reduce the value of certain mortgage-backed securities. These securities also are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgage, particularly during periods of economic downturn.

Municipal Securities Risks — Municipal securities risks include the ability of the issuer to repay the obligation, the relative lack of information about certain issuers of municipal securities, and the possibility of future legislative changes which could affect the market for and value of municipal securities. Certain municipal securities, including private activity bonds, are not backed by the full faith, credit and taxing power of the issuer. Additionally, if events occur after the security is acquired that impact the security’s tax-exempt status, the Fund and its shareholders could be subject to substantial tax liabilities.

Repurchase Agreements Risk — If the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligation under the agreement, the Fund may suffer delays and incur costs or lose money in exercising its rights under the agreement. If the seller fails to repurchase the security and the market value of the security declines, the Fund may lose money.

U.S. Government Obligations Risk — Certain securities in which the Fund may invest, including securities issued by certain U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, are not guaranteed by the U.S. Government or supported by the full faith and credit of the United States.

Variable and Floating Rate Instrument Risk — The absence of an active market for these securities could make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of them if the issuer defaults.

When-Issued and Delayed Settlement Transactions Risk — When-issued and delayed delivery securities involve the risk that the security the Fund buys will lose value prior to its delivery. There also is the risk that the security will not be issued or that the other party to the transaction will not meet its obligation. If this occurs, the Fund loses both the investment opportunity for the assets it set aside to pay for the security and any gain in the security’s price.
