The Friends of the Glencoe Public Library

The Friends of the Glencoe Public Library serves as a fundraising organization to enrich library resources and services. The Friends group contributes to the purchase of equipment, furnishings, special books, and audio-visual materials.  Recently, the Friends worked with Scott Byron & Co. to enhance the library's landscaping, with a new design for the entrance and west side of the building, including a new garden on the southwest corner of our grounds.

The Friends sponsor a number of important activities at the library, including:

• Three used book sales each year
• A continuing used book sale in the Library
• Classical music concerts at the Library in the spring and fall
• Summer reading programs
• Monday at the Movies at the Woman's Library Club

If you are interested in joining the Friends of the Library or if you would like to offer them a tax deductible contribution, you may call (847) 835-7467. They would be happy to hear from you.
