About The Friends of the Cambridge Public Library!

We are a group of dedicated volunteers who love books, learning, and all things related to our outstanding Cambridge public library system.

As "Friends of the Cambridge Public Library", our purpose is to promote an informed interest in library resources and programs, and to raise funds for the expansion and improvement of services and facilities throughout the public library system.

You can help us! We are always seeking volunteers, financial gifts, and in-kind contributions. For more information on how you can become more involved in our organization, please click here.

About The Cambridge Public Library

The Cambridge Public Library and its six branches serve as a doorway to opportunity, self-development and recreation for all its residents, and as a forum where they may share ideas, cultures and resources among themselves and with people around the globe. The free availability of information, the lively interaction of people, and the open exchange of ideas animate and extend the democratic mission of the library.
