Books, Community, Friendship: Be a Library Friend

Since 1976, the Friends of the Saratoga Springs Public Library have promoted and supported the goals of the library. We have sponsored and initiated programs and provided gifts through membership fees and fundraising for the past thirty-five years. Advocacy has been crucial throughout the Friends’ history. Early on we were an articulate voice at School Board budget meetings and, in the late eighties, we provided much of the energy and leadership crucial to the passing of the bond issue that made the current library possible.
