Welcome from the Board of Directors
Welcome to the Friends of the Louisville Free Public Library Website!
We hope that you will join the many Friends of the Library if you have not already done so. Friends of the Library, which includes the entire library system, includes individual branch chapters, and help to promote reading and education through their endeavors.
Foremost among our public activities are the Book Sales held twice per year (currently in June and October), which offer an opportunity to browse through thousands of books at very reasonable prices. The Friends also provide funding for Library programs, including Read With Me, and Read Baby Read. Each year, the Friends also fund the Sara Bein college scholarships for library employees.
Volunteers are at the heart of our organization, and the Friends welcome assistance in promoting our activities, and those of the Library. By joining the Friends of the Library, you also have the opportunity to join your local branch chapter, if you so choose.
If you have a passion for books, for research, for reading, for learning and education, for the community, for the Library, please join the Friends of the Louisville Free Public Library today.
We’re also looking for candidates for system-wide directors for the 2010 - 2012 term. You can download a PDF of the position description along with a PDF of the application. Just fill out the application and submit to the address provided.
We look forward to meeting you!
Friends of the Library Board
