Our Approach

Knowledge is a never ending quest for those dedicated to enrich their lives with information. It is because of this drive that the Friends of the Freedom Public Library work hard to facilitate the needs of the community. We do this through tireless programs, book and lobby sales and membership drives.

Our Story

As members of the wider educational community, the Freedom Friends are dedicated to promoting literacy. We commit to making all forms of materials available to the public from print to digital and beyond, from reading nooks to audio stations, tablets, and computers and whatever the future brings. We are especially committed to programs for young readers and to events that nurture children’s learning and love of reading, encourage their curiosity and above all empower them to live in the world.

The Freedom Friends are proud to join with the library in community outreach and community building. We seek to support the library’s commitment to making Freedom Public Library a safe, nurturing and educational environment for children and adults, a place that is open and inclusive and in a very real sense, the heart of the community.

As a non-profit charity, we organize our work around a continuous improvement process. We project future enhancements to the library that will further enrich the entire community while taking responsibility for careful stewardship of the assets we develop through fundraising, membership outreach and obtaining grants and donations. We support the library staff in their own professional development as a key element in serving the community.
