Friends of the Dalton Free Public Library

In January 1994 a group of concerned library members met and the nucleus of the Friends of the Dalton Free Public Library was formed. Those present felt their financial support would augment library activities that would otherwise remain unfunded. The group decided the main focus of the Friends would be to:

•    Raise funds to purchase materials not covered by the library’s budget

•     Provide lecture programs

•    Assist in summer reading programs for children by purchasing  materials    and prizes

•    Support book discussion groups

•    Sponsor educational meetings for the general public
