Are you looking for a way to support your library? One way is to make a contribution to the Friends of the Library, a 501(c)(3) organization. Your donation to the Friends of the Library will help to support the wide variety of programs and activities at the library. 

The Friends assist in many ways, including by supplying speaker fees for special events, underwriting portions of the summer reading club programs, and by purchasing materials and supplies that the library would not otherwise be able to buy. 

If you’d like to make a donation to the Friends, simply click on the yellow “donate” button on the left side of the screen. This will take you to the Friends’ PayPal account which is a secure and simple way to make a contribution. If you would prefer to mail a check, please make your check or money order out to “Friends of the Barberton Public Library” and mail to:
