Friends
of the Library Q & A
Q:
Who are the Friends of the Library?
A:
The Friends are a nonprofit group whose members support the Dunellen Public
Library in various ways, including:
-- Promoting public awareness and support of the library,
-- Advocating for library funding and pro-library legislation,
-- Donating materials and equipment,
-- Contributing to Books-to-Keep, a holiday book distribution project of
Middlesex County libraries,
-- Providing funds for library programming, such as the summer Pony Rides and
the Radio Man,
-- Maintaining the library's landscaping, and
-- Encouraging gifts and bequests from the community to the library.
Q:
How do the Friends raise their funds?
A:
The Friends raise funds through the support of annual membership dues, as well
as by:
-- Soliciting local businesses for donations,
-- Holding raffles, and
-- Selling merchandise such as tote bags, cookbooks, and note cards.
Q:
How do I join the Friends?
A:
Membership forms are available at the library. Ask a staff member for one
at the circulation desk.
Q:
How much are the membership dues?
A:
The membership dues are as follows:
-- Single Membership - $15
-- Family Membership - $25
-- Senior/Student Membership - $10
Q:
What if I only want to be a Friend for one year?
A:
Giving the appropriate dues listed above guarantees membership for one
year. After that year is up, your membership with the Friends expires, and
you will be able to choose whether or not to renew your membership. We
encourage that you continue to be a member from year to year so that you may
influence the Dunellen Public Library for the better.
If you love your library, be a FRIEND!
