The Friends of Milton Public Library hosts a month-long book sale in March, July, and November. Donations of materials are gratefully accepted, but please read their Donation Guidelines<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Our Purpose:<\/span><\/strong>
The Friends of Milton Public Library helps carry out the library\u2019s mission of opening doors for curious minds, nurturing learning and creativity, creating opportunities, and enriching lives by bringing people and ideas together. They provide an extra level of support not possible through the library\u2019s normal operating budget. <\/span><\/p>\n

An elected board of trustees leads the Friends, and various committees\u2014with the support of library staff\u2014carry out the group\u2019s goals and mission. <\/span><\/p>\n

Money raised through membership dues, fundraisers, and other initiatives allow the library to operate at a higher level by offering additional services, materials, and programs.
<\/span><\/p>\n

Support:<\/span><\/strong>
You can help support your library by becoming a member now. Membership is vital to the health of any organization, and whatever level of participation you choose (dues paying only, selective project involvement, and\/or active participation as a board or committee member), you\u2019re guaranteed to meet new people and create new bonds with people you might already know. Furthermore, as a Friend, you will receive early admission to their book sales, be eligible for college scholarship opportunities, and be able to register in advance for special events.<\/p>\n
