Meet The Friends of the Library
For over 25 years, the Friends of the Crown Point Community Library (CPCL) have made it their mission to enhance and promote the use and enjoyment of both the Crown Point and Winfield Branch libraries.
The Friends provide direct financial assistance to the library through fundraising. They purchase materials and equipment not covered in the library’s general budget. They also fund cultural and educational programs, literacy and outreach initiatives and encourage gifts, endowments, and memorials for the library.
In celebration of National Friends Week, October 15 – 21, 2-17, the Friends are hosting a meet and greet event at the Winfield Branch Library. Stop by on Tuesday, October 10 between 4 and 5 p.m. to meet some of the members. Information on how to become a Friend and upcoming events will be available. Light refreshments will be served and special Halloween treats bags will be given to children (while supplies last).
As a member, you’ll be paid back in a thousand ways every year – with children’s smiles, the sincere appreciation of the library’s hardworking staff and the pure satisfaction of knowing you make a difference in your community!
