Friends of the Library

We’re So Glad You’re Here! Friends Groups are integral to sustaining BPL's creativity and energy. Your support and advocacy ensures neighborhood libraries have essential funds to purchase program supplies and care for well-tread spaces. Above all, you help educate your community about BPL, so that more people can benefit from our diverse resources and services.

Friends of Brooklyn Public Library support their local branch in many ways. They support their library through advocacy, increasing community awareness, raising funds and helping at special events. Friends host monthly meetings and events, including book and bake sales, author talks and readings, holiday events and much more!

Want to become a Friend? Visit your local branch and talk to a library staff member or join us at one of our upcoming events!
