The Friends of the Abbot Public Library
The Friends of Abbot Public Library is a group that works very hard to support Abbot Library. There is a growing core group of loyal workers who are always willing to welcome new people, and there are people who provide financial support only. The Friends sponsor four book sales a year. They have a very substantial Statement of Purpose, which reads:
To further community awareness and use of the library.
To sponsor programs designed to add to the cultural life of the community.
To provide direct financial assistance by purchasing for the library special and unusual items which cannot be purchased from the budget.
To encourage gifts, endowments and memorials for the library.
To aid in public relations by informing the community about the librarys services and problems.
To communicate the needs of the community to the staff and library board.
To call public attention to outstanding achievements of the library.
To work for library legislation or appropriations.
