The Kingston Public Library Foundation

The Kingston Public Library Foundation supports the Library through fundraising. Funds are used primarily to purchase books and other library materials, and have been instrumental in helping the Library retain state certification during the recent years of reduced municipal funding. You can support the Library and the Foundation by responding to fundraising mailings, making donations at the Library, or giving online at www.kplf.org. We are grateful for every donation, large or small.

Friends of the Kingston Public Library

Friends of the Kingston Public Library Fourth Annual Book and Bake Sale, Saturday, May 12th, 9am to 3 pm
The Friends of the Kingston Public Library Fourth Annual Book and Bake Sale will be held on Saturday, May 12th, 2012 (rain date May 19, 2012.) from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. at the Kingston Public Library, 6 Green Street. This year’s collection includes thousands of paperbacks, children’s books, novels in almost perfect condition, art books, and a whole Dewey Decimal System of other subjects. We have a great collection at great prices! Proceeds benefit the Friends of the Kingston Public Library, which supports the Library through programs and donations of museum passes, books, and other special purchases.

Volunteers and donations of baked goods are still needed. Please call Library Director Sia Stewart at (781) 585-0517x 122 to volunteer. This is a great community service project for kids! Donations of books (no textbooks or magazines, please) will be accepted at the Library during open hours.
