2023 Annual Appeal

Won’t you be a Friend?

Because the library is about so much more than books, now and into the future.

January begins a new year – and the Annual Appeal for the Friends of the Lynnfield Library (FOLL). We invite ALL those who use and love the Lynnfield Public Library to renew your membership, or join for the first time. Our mailing will be going out by the end of the month, but if you want to get ahead of the pack, you can renew online – head over to FOLL.org or click on this link!

We are often asked – “Who are the Friends of the Lynnfield Library, and how is membership different than holding a Lynnfield Library card?“

The Friends is a membership organization that provides funding for the library above and beyond that from the town’s budget. FOLL funds 2/3 of the Library’s programming, 100% of the Museum Pass Program and so much more, building a community through enhanced access to programming and creating a library that is “so much more than books.” The majority of that funding comes from our membership dues – but what does membership mean for you beyond supporting the Library? For our spring book sale in May – Friday night is Members Only AND at every book sale you get a free book! Membership starts at just $25, allowing each of us to contribute a modest amount that together adds up to significant support for the Library and its programs.

We hope you will become a “Friend” today! Join/renew online or keep an eye on your mailbox.
