Great communities need great libraries.
Great libraries need Friends.
Did you know? The Friends of the Barrington Public Library funds over 88% of Barrington Library's programs.
We sponsor lectures, concerts, film screenings, workshops, Museum Passes, and many more ways to engage and inspire, supporting lifelong learning and ensuring a wide range of educational and cultural initiatives are accessible to everyone.
Book Sales and The Friends Memberships make all this possible!
Won't you join us? It's simple, meaningful. Be part of something special.
Paper, Scissors.. Art! New Life for Recycled Pages
Unleash your imagination with Craft Kits made from Pages from books destined for the landfill.
Ever wonder what happens to books when they’ve lost their shelf life? For books that are damaged, outdated, or unsellable, The Friends have reimagined these book pages into upcycled Craft Kits. Create beautiful paper crafts - stunning loopy flowers, collages, personalized greeting cards and more! Perfect for journals or scrapbooks.
Kits will be available at the Library's Daily Book Sale section.
Proceeds support library programs!
