If you love books, meeting people and supporting our amazing library, we invite you to join the Friends of the Mattituck-Laurel Library. Each July, we mail an invitation to join the Friends to every resident. Your membership fees go toward concerts and cultural programs, the children's summer program and any other special need the library might have. In addition, we hold raffles throughout the year with proceeds earmarked for our scholarship fund. These scholarships are awarded to graduating seniors at Mattituck High School.
Join us, get involved in helping to keep our library the very special place that it is in our community.
Meetings
We have meetings on the third Tuesday of each month from April through December. It would be great if your could join us at these meetings to really become part of the Friends. We could always use a helping hand with stuffing envelopes, handing out ice cream at our Kid's Hot Dog Picnic, and book sales. Most of all we would value your input. We are a very informal group, so please stop by and make some friends.
