The members of The Fairport Harbor Friends of the Library are strong supporters of the library and we are hoping that you will consider joining and participating in this group. The friends help by providing funds for programs and resources that the regular library budget cannot provide.

We welcome new members at any time. Please print and fill out the membership form and drop it in the mail or return it to the library circulation desk. Membership forms are available at the library.
