Mt. Laurel’s council presented a proclamation declaring Oct. 21 to Oct. 27 Friends of the Library week in Mt. Laurel.

The Friends of the Mt. Laurel Library (FOL) is a non-profit group of volunteers dedicated to supporting the library through fundraising activities and fostering positive relationships through community events and advocacy.

The Friends raise an average of $50,000 a year for the library and have provided furniture, concerts, scanners, computer workstations and book collections over the years in response to community needs.

Members of the community are encouraged to join the Friends of the Mt. Laurel Library. For more information, please visit www.mtlaurel.lib.nj.us/Application.pdf.
