Next Friends Meeting: Feb. 14 @ 10 am at Oxford Library
The Friends of the Library in Oxford (FOLIO) is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose purpose is to maintain an association of persons interested in the Oxford Public Library; to focus public attention on library services, facilities and needs; and to stimulate gifts, endowments and bequests to the library. FOLIO also provides supplementary programs, service and equipment to increase the scope and effectiveness of the Oxford Public Library and to raise funds to that end.
​
FOLIO meets at the Oxford Public Library on the first Friday every month (excluding July and August) at 10 am. We would be happy to welcome you to our next meeting!

ACTIVITIES

PROGRAM & EVENT SPONSORSHIP
The Friends of the Library sponsor many exciting programs and events at the library every year, such as a community open house, holiday concert, and a visit from Santa!

FUNDRAISING
Because the Friends aim to sponsor as many programs and improvements to the library as possible, fundraising is a critical component of our work. In the past, we have hosted holiday raffles, sold engraved bricks, and participated in the Oxford High School Booster Club's Festival of Trees.

HOOPLA
The Friends help the library provide the digital service, Hoopla, which gives library users access too e-books, audiobooks, movies/tv, music and digital magazines!

BOOK SALES
The Friends host bi-annual book sales (in May and November). Proceeds help raise money to support the library. Ahead of the book sales, we have donation collection days outside of the library.

"The very existence of libraries affords the best evidence that we may yet have hope for the future of man."
T. S. Eliot
