October 17-23 is National Friends of the Library Week. That means this is a great time to learn more about Friends of the Arlington Public Library.

The Friends are a membership organization whose mission is to encourage and assist the Library in providing the highest quality library services. They run the biannual Friends Book Sale, as well as smaller ongoing sales at many Library locations throughout the year. Money earned from Friends memberships and the Book Sales goes directly to support Library programming and services.

How can you take part?

• Become a member
• Donate materials to the Book Sale
• Donate Financially
• Become a Library Volunteer
• Keep up with the Friends on Facebook
