FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY
Friends of the Library are groups of people who voluntarily give of their time and effort to doing what they can to make “their” library a better place, both for the staff and their fellow-users. Friends involve the local community in Library affairs, raise funds for much-needed new Library material, and help staff by mending, shelving and cleaning books as well as helping out with Library activities. Friends assume a supportive and encouraging role to the staff.
