What do Friends do?
 
  • We help support and promote the growth and development of the Clapp Memorial Library.
  • We raise funds for books & materials.
  • We plan and staff the Friends books sales.
  • We sell items of related interest to Library patrons, including two different sized  "logo-item"  tote bags. All proceeds benefit the Library.
  • We sponsor special library programs such as author events, lectures and book signings.
  • We sponsor children's events to encourage a positive association with learning and the library, including our ongoing assistance with the summer reading program.
  • We lobby public officials on behalf of the library.
  • We participate in the Belchertown Fair - see us in the Parade and stop by the "Friends" Booth!  2007 Judges Choice Award
