Friends of Chapel Hill Public Library

Friends Annual Membership Lunch

Sunday, July 28 at 12:00 noon

Members Only

Registration Required to Attend

The Friends Annual Membership Lunch is one of the many perks that comes with Friends membership! A light lunch and brief presentation of Friends activities and financial results will be followed by some bookish conversation from two fabulous librarians: Atlas Logan and Susan Brown. Atlas joined us in April as the new director of the Chapel Hill Public Library and Chapel Hill Community Arts & Culture. Former director Susan Brown is Executive Director for the Town of Chapel Hill's Strategic Communications.

Members will receive invitations in July with instructions on how to register. If you're not a member, you can join or renew now to receive an invitation.

Coming in August

Friday, August 23: 3 pm - 6 pm (Members Only)

Saturday, August 24: 10 am - 5 pm

Sunday, August 25: 10 am - 2 pm ($10 Bag Sale)

The Friends Big Book Sale has thousands of great books and puzzles for all ages at bargain prices.

Friday is members only. If you're not a member, you can join or renew now at the door and shop for book bargains before the sale opens to the public. Employees of Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools are also welcome to attend on Friday - just show your staff ID at the door.

To promote a safe environment in the busy library lobby and facilitate a positive shopping experience for everyone, customers are expected to comply with Guidelines for Book Dealers and Other Large Order Customers, including a limit on the number of containers that can be stored in the lobby and purchased on any one visit (although multiple visits are welcome).

All shoppers are encouraged to bring their own bags. Book dealers will be charged for extra boxes supplied by the Friends.

Friends Funds at Work
Friends of Chapel Hill Public Library raise more than $150,000 for the Library each year from the sale of books donated by the community, membership dues and donations, and events. In addition to an annual pledge of support for collections, programs, and services, the Friends fund a variety of special projects:

Explore More In Pritchard Park provides outdoor experiential learning opportunities in science, nature and the environment.

The Circulator brings staff, collections and services into the community.

The Summer Blast creates a fantastic season of story times, book clubs, special performances and summer reading programs for children and families.

The Welcome Hub provides a new modern service point for Library users.

Sixteen additional parking spaces in the Upper Lot facilitate access by easing parking congestion for Library users.

The programs and services the Library provides to our community would not make as much of a positive impact without the financial support provided by the Friends through annual memberships, book sale proceeds and other activities. These funds are put to use enhancing every aspect of the Library.
We love our Friends!
