Patchogue-Medford Friends of the Library

About

The Friends of the Library organization was formed to help the Library maintain its role as a center for learning, enjoyment and public service. The Friends work to promote closer ties between the public and the Library. We are a not-for-profit organization, staffed completely by unpaid volunteers.

The books, magazines, CDs and videos that we sell on our Thrift Shelf or at our special sales are all discards and donations from the public. The money we receive is spent funding library programs and special needs. We are also actively engaged in community outreach programs. Donations are accepted through the library.
