ADVOCACY 

The Santa Monica Public Library is a key part of the local recovery effort but is currently underfunded and lacks the staff and support to re-open all our Branches.  Our community deserves their library.  Join our Advocacy Network and add your voice to the growing community of concerned residents by emailing our Advocacy chair at FriendsoftheSMPLAdvocacy@gmail.com to be added to the Friends advocacy updates and calls to action.

 

BOOKSTORE – ON HOLD

The Friends Bookstore succeeds through the hard work and dedication of volunteers. Currently a small team of volunteers is working to keep the online bookstore running.  Check back for updates on when the Bookstore will re-open.

APPLY TO BE ON THE BOARD

The Friends Board is looking for new members who can contribute in the areas of fundraising, advocacy, volunteer recruitment, social media marketing, and graphic design. If interested, send a note to our volunteer coordinator at friendsofsmpl@gmail.com

LIBRARY & FRIEND PROGRAMS – ON HOLD

Want to help the Library but have a limited amount of time?  We are growing a volunteer program to help with library and Friends’ activities.  One day opportunities exist for Friends volunteers at Friends funded programming throughout the year.
