The Friends of the Orange Public Library is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization of community residents who believe in the value and future of our public library. The Friends support the Library with funds from the Friends Bookstore, by receiving and encouraging personal donations, bequests from estates and distributions from trusts, and by encouraging community support for a better library. This wonderful group of volunteers has been serving the Orange Public Library and the community since 1959.

The Friends generously provide the Library with the following:

  • Financial support for the Children's Summer Reading Program
  • Large Print books
  • DVDs for all three branches
  • Funds for other projects requested by the Library
  • Outreach Programs

Friends seeking more friends

This year our main funding source, the Friends Bookstore, has been closed due to the pandemic. Additionally the City finances have also been hard hit, making the need for our support even greater. The shuttering of the Friends Bookstore has cut our ability to support badly, so now more than ever the Friends need your tax-free donations to help the Friends help the City help the Library.

Please consider becoming a member or making a donation FOPL this year. All gifts will be recognized with gratitude

What's Happening?

Even though we are NOT accepting donations quite yet, look how nice the new wrap on our bin box looks. Thank you to Library Director Dave Curtis for arranging this for us.

We've heard from many of you and know that during the coronavirus quarantine you clean and organized and have bags and boxes of books just waiting to be donated. Hopefully, we will soon open up and once again take your gently used books, movies and music.
