The Friends of the Lititz Public Library is a group dedicated to the purpose of focusing attention on library services, facilities and needs, and raising funds through projects and special events. Members are busy all year long, working on activities to benefit the library. Some projects they pursue each year are the annual fund drive, the Turkey Hill Ice Cream Festival, the Lititz Rotary Craft Show, and the Summer Book Sale, among others. Some members also donate their time by planting flowers in the courtyard each spring or by doing activites to keep the library running smoothly, such as shelving or mending books. For its outstanding efforts, the group received the honor of Friends Group of the Year in 1998 from the PA Citizens for Better Libraries.
New members are welcome.
The purpose of the Board of Directors is to represent the community in making policy decisions and promoting library growth. Involved in securing funds and directing library finances, the directors are fiscally responsible for the library. Planning and evaluation are important aspects of the work of the Board, which sets goals and objectives for future library service. Members of the community with particular talents and abilities are chosen to serve on the Board.
