Friends of the Library

Fremont Friends of the Library is a non-profit organization founded in 1965. With generous support from the library and community, we:

  • Host three major book sales each year (January, May, and September)
  • Hold pop-up sales throughout the year

Our book sales raise money for programs and activities at Fremont Main, Centerville, and Niles Libraries. These sales also offer affordable books to everyone.
