Friends of Athens-Clarke County Library

Friends of Athens-Clarke County Library The Friends are citizens who choose to help their local library. They are the "caring core" of libraries across the country.

Love needlepoint? Want to support the library? Here's your chance to stitch and support the library.

In celebration of National Library Week, we have partnered with Sip & Stitch Athens on a few canvases that celebrate books and libraries. You can purchase a needlepoint canvas or digital chart, and all profits will go toward the Friends of the Library mission and supporting the library.

From Board President, Linda:

I enjoy serving on the Friends of the Library Board because it’s a meaningful way to give back to a resource that meant so much to me and my children growing up. It’s also incredibly rewarding to work alongside others who share a commitment to the library’s mission and its vital role in the community.

From Anjali, a second-year Board Member:

I enjoy my time with like minded individuals, who share the same values and interests as I do with encouraging literacy, connecting families, and supporting the local libraries, where every family and child are valued. It's been an honor and privilege to be around with such a great group of people and to be involved with events and efforts that make a real difference in the community. Most importantly, I treasure the opportunity as the FOL Board supports the very activities and programs my kids love to attend. Get involved - you will love it!
