Who are the Friends?
The Friends of the Rutland Library exist to raise funds for the library. They hold monthly book sales, and other fundraisers throughout the year. Thanks to their fundraising we are able to host performers throughout the year, and offer museum passes to the public. They also supply the materials for our storytime and have contributed to our new children's play area.
This Month's Book Sale is:
October 25th 10-1:00
Book sale prices are:
$5.00 for a small bag
$10.00 for a large bag
Kids can pick out 5 free books!
Interested in helping the Friends?
There are two ways to become a Friend of the Library. You can become a board member and help with fundraising and distributing funds. The Friends Group meets once a month for an hour.
Or, you can become a member through a donation. Costs range from $5.00 for an individual membership up to $200.00 for a lifetime membership.
