About The Friends

The Friends of the Lincolnwood Library:

Encourage broad-based community involvement, utilization, and membership in the library. Provide volunteers and financial support to enhance and promote programming, resources, and services.

Brick-Buy-Brick Project

The friends have completed a "wall of lasting impressions" in the lobby of the library, showcasing the names of many community members, businesses, friends, and neighbors who have contributed to the library. Please stop and take a look next time you visit the library.
