Mission:

To encourage public support for and interest in Memorial Hall Library, which derives its principal financial support from municipal and philanthropic monies.

To encourage gifts, endowments, and memorials for public library purposes.

To foster awareness and use of Memorial Hall Library, and to encourage the donation of time and assistance by townspeople to the library.

What do the Friends do?

The Friends provide special programs and services that expand and enrich the library's regular budget. These "extras" include concerts, readings, speakers, children's programs, museum passes, materials, and equipment. For example, the Friends sponsor Jazz in the Hall, fast becoming an Andover tradition.

Why join the Friends?

Your membership demonstrates to the community that you feel that the library is an important institution in the life of Andover. As a Friend, you can limit your involvement to a yearly contribution, or you can become as active as you like in the Friends' fund-raising and cultural activities. Some Friends organize book sales, some plan programs, some volunteer for special projects in the library.
