The Friends of the Maitland Public Library is a non-profit corporation with the purpose of supporting and enhancing library services. The Friends promote the services and facilities of the library by sponsoring events of interest to the community. Residents and members are kept abreast of library activities by way of a newsletter. The Friends raise funds to purchase books and equipment for the library through book sales in their on-site store. Volunteers are encouraged to help sort donations; organize and serve as cashier in the bookstore; and serve on the Friends board.
