The Library Board of Directors encourages the formation and continued support
of Friends of the Library groups in CCLS Communities.
Purpose
Friends of the Library groups are nonprofit organizations made up of interested persons for some
of all of the following reasons:
• To raise funds for special projects outside of the general library budget which
complement the Library’s goals and objectives.
• To stimulate interest in the Library and promote the use of the Library’s resources
• To sponsor cultural and related programs that are of interest to the community
• To provide hands-on or in-kind service to the library
• To encourage gifts, endowments and memorials to benefit the Library
• To be an advocate for the Library’s services
• To be an informed, active citizen lobby to advocate for the Library with public and
elected officials, including local officials, County Commissioners, State and U.S
legislators
The purpose of the Friends of the Saratoga Library is to focus public attention on the library
and its services; to stimulate interest and promote the use of the library’s resources;
to sponsor cultural and related programs that are of interest to the community; and to encourage gifts, endowments and memorials to the library.
The Friends of the Saratoga Library help sponsor speakers and activities for adults and children,
donate items to the library (books, CDs, movies, tables, games,)
and finance improvements to the Library facility and grounds.
Book sales, donations and grants are used to finance the Friends activities.
The Friends of the Saratoga Library always welcome new members!
If you are interested in helping support the Saratoga Library we encourage you to become a member.
Dues are $10 per year. The group meets every other month, six times per year,
usually on Thursday evenings.
Various projects keep us busy throughout the year, such as book sales of donated books, programs for the community, improvements around the Library both indoors and outdoors, the Free Seed Library,
and the Saratoga Sunflower Contest.
