    Friends of the Dobbs Ferry Public Library







    Supporting your local library is a gift to the entire community.

    Friends of the Dobbs Ferry Public Library

    Who we are. What we do.

    The Friends of the Dobbs Ferry Public Library is a non-profit organization comprised of community residents like you who share a commitment to promoting and preserving a strong local library. 


    Our members and donors provide support of the library through our advocacy,  awareness  and fundraising work.  


    Our mission includes:

    • Informing  and engaging the community as to our library's resources, services and needs.
    • Sponsoring and engaging volunteer services for the library
    • Supporting  staff enrichment 
    • Sponsoring cultural programs and exhibits
    • Purchasing items for the library above and beyond the library's ordinary budget
    • Encouraging sustaining gifts to the library

    Thanks to the generosity of the Friends, the library now has much needed new tech items such as new iPads and a printer cart for the 3D printer.  The Friends funding has allowed the library to bring new innovative programming while continuing to deliver old favorites like the Summer Reading Program.  To help maintain the quality of our collections, we also supplement the library’s acquisition budget. 


    The Friends meetings are usually held on the 3rd Monday of the month at 7:00 p.m. in the Library.  Our next meeting will take place May 21, 2018.  


    Our Annual Meeting will take place on June 7th - stay tuned!   


    ALL ARE WELCOME.

    Why Support Your Local Library?

    Life-Long Learning


    Libraries allow  individuals to acquire the thinking skills that will enable them to learn on their own, all of their lives.


    Our  library provides a safe haven for all members of our community to think, create, share and grow. 

    Community


    Libraries today are less about what they have for people and more about what they do for and with people.


    Our library is a shared  community space for children, teens, adults and seniors. It is a place  where our community comes together.

      

    Empowerment


    Libraries empower people by providing them with access to information and helping them to fulfill needs related to health, government services, work and community engagement.   

    Our library provides services at critical times in our community members lives.
