On behalf of the Friends’ Executive, I hope this finds all of you well and looking forward to spring. The past few months have been busy with a variety of events, and I am excited to share some updates with you.
Our 2024 Annual General Meeting took place on Wednesday January 15th, 2025 in the Stevenson & Hunt Room at Central Library. You will find highlights from the meeting in our current newsletter.

We presented the Friend of the Year Award for 2024 to Ellen Hobin, Director of Marketing and Communications for London Public Library, in recognition of support and guidance, particularly in helping us advertise for our Annual Book Sale.
The Friends of the Library Bookstore at the Central Library continues to offer a great selection with over 10,000 items, including CDs, DVD movies, all at great prices.
Thanks to your generosity, the Book for Every Child Program, in its 33rd year, distributed 6318 books to children who might otherwise not receive a new book of their own. Donations for the 2025 program are accepted year round, online or at any Library location. You can also donate in memory of a loved one or as a meaningful gift for a special occasion.
Be sure to check the end of the newsletter for a detailed update about the Friends’ website.
Finally, I want to extend my sincere thanks to the Friends’ Executive for their commitment and dedication, to our volunteers for their time and effort, and to our members for your ongoing support.
