Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I receive this newsletter? +

You either signed up online to receive this newsletter or, a while back, you or someone in your household shared this address with the Friends when signing up to be a Friends Member or volunteer.

Will I still receive a mailed newsletter? +

No. Mailed newsletters cost the Friends thousands of dollars a year in printing and postage costs, and our local print shop went out of business. With digital newsletters, we can reach more people, more often, at minimal expense.

When will you accept donations again? +

We anticipate being able to accept donations after the Summer Book Sale. Once we've cleaned and organized the Friends Room we'll let you know we're accepting donations once again.
