About The Friends of the Cranford Public Library

ABOUT US

The Friends of the Library is a non-profit organization that was established in 1985. Since then, we have been working tirelessly to support the Cranford Library in various ways. Our members are passionate about promoting literacy, fostering a love for reading, and ensuring that our library remains a vibrant hub of knowledge and community engagement.

As Friends of the Library, we believe that libraries play a crucial role in society. They provide access to information, educational resources, and cultural enrichment opportunities for people of all ages. By supporting our local library, we are investing in the intellectual and social well-being of our community.

What We Do at the
Cranford Public Library

The Friends of the Library organize various fundraising events throughout the year to generate funds that directly benefit the Cranford Library. These funds are used to enhance the library's collection, support educational programs, and improve facilities. Some of our initiatives include:

  • Book sales: We hold regular book sales where community members can purchase donated books at affordable prices. The proceeds from these sales go directly towards supporting the library.

  • Author talks and book signings: We invite renowned authors to speak at the library and engage with readers. These events not only promote literacy but also provide an opportunity for book lovers to meet their favorite authors.

  • Fundraising campaigns: We run annual fundraising campaigns to raise funds for specific projects or initiatives identified by the library. These campaigns help us make a significant impact on the library's resources and services.

  • Volunteer opportunities: We offer various volunteer opportunities for community members who want to contribute their time and skills to support the library. From shelving books to organizing events, there are plenty of ways to get involved.
