Members of the Friends of the Mattapoisett Library and the public are invited to the Annual Meeting on Wednesday, January 18 at 6:00 pm in the community room of the Mattapoisett Free Public Library, 7 Barstow Street. There will be a brief business meeting after which Library Director Jennifer Jones will present about Ensuring Your Right to Read, the new legislative campaign for the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners.
The Friends are looking for new board members to fill several positions, and always welcomes new members. Membership envelopes are available at the Mattapoisett Library and offer a range of dues in support of library programming and museum pass purchases. Thanks to the generosity of the membership and robust book sales, the library was able to add Battleship Cove as a new pass and renew several favorites such as the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, the Children’s Museum of Boston, the New England Aquarium, and the Museum of Fine Arts. The Friends look forward to supporting more programs for children and teens this year, as well as hosting the summer book sale during Harbor Days and the Jewelry Sale. Please consider joining today.
Light refreshments will be served at the Annual Meeting and RSVPs are requested to jjones@sailsinc.org. Zoom link is available upon request for those who can attend virtually. Any questions or interest in joining the Friends can be sent to mfpl@sailsinc.org.
