The Friends of East Greenbush Community Library is an organization whose mission is to create broad support in the community for the East Greenbush Community Library as a major and expanding cultural resource.  Membership is $10.00.  Membership applications are available at the library or can be printed here. Your membership and donation, both of which are tax deductible, will be acknowledged by a letter in the Fall.

Active participation in the Friends activities is encouraged but not required for membership.

Donations in addition to the membership fee are welcome and encouraged.  They will be added to the proceeds from the semi-annual book sale and the sale of book bags.  The book sales occur twice a year in the spring and fall. The Friends also sponsor a Children's Festival and Book Sale in early fall with books/materials and programs just for children and families. Books & AV materials for the sales may be left at the library at any time. Donations of sale items are accepted year-round.  All proceeds are donated to the library for deserving projects.

In recent years the Friends have donated money to purchase a variety of books, CDs, DVDs, and computer equipment, as well as funded classical concerts and children's programs. They continue to be a much-needed and valuable resource for the library.

The Friends meet five times a year on the 3rd Tuesday of the month in February, April, June, September, and November at 6:30 P.M. New members are encouraged to join and become a part of this important and appreciated community group.
