Friends of the Burlington Library

The Friends are an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization dedicated to the support of Library programs and collections. We raise funds through the sale of used books at Book Ends (our on-going book sale located in the library lobby), and through our two annual Used Book Sales. The Friends also support the library with "hands-on" help at library programs--both children’s and adult.
