May Annual Dinner Meeting
Your membership also entitles you to take part in the Annual Friends Dinner held each May in the Community Room of the library. To join pick up a membership form at the library. May 1st at 6:00 pm.
Bestselling Author Visits
The Friends of the Enfield Library help us to bring in widely known authors like Malachy McCourt, Jane Yolen and Donna Stewart Hardway and Steve Hamilton.
Monthly Meetings
The Friends of the Enfield Library meet monthly on the last Tuesday of every month in the Community Room of the library. At some of those meetings throughout the year local authors talk about their works and offer signed copies. Members also visit the Friends of the Enfield Library work area on Tuesday evenings throughout the year to sort books for the annual book sale. If you are interested in becoming a sorter either join in, or call to schedule yourself to sort at another time.
Museum Pass Program
Explore the world beyond the library through museum passes provided through the generosity of the Friends of the Enfield Library Museum Pass Program
