The Friends of the East Cleveland Public Library would like to thank the patrons of the Library for its support over the years as a vibrant organization. We are continuously seeking ways to better advocate for East Cleveland and its Library. Please consider supporting us and the Library in the future.

In existence for over 50 years, the FRIENDS help the library become a more visible asset to the East Cleveland community and help support library services. You can help by taking an active role in the organization, and your ideas for FRIENDS’ activities are always welcome. Please consider volunteering your time and talents. The mission of the FRIENDS is to promote a better understanding of the needs of the library throughout the community and to lead in the development of programs that can extend and improve the use of the library services and facility.
