Are you wondering how you can help your library?
One of the best ways is to join the Friends of the Dover Plains Library!

The Friends is a group operating under the non-profit 501(c)(3) organization of the Dover Plains Library whose purpose is to generate important financial assistance for the Dover Plains Library through fundraising, advocacy and membership dues.

The library now has a puzzle exchange! Bring a puzzle to take a puzzle.
We welcome puzzles for all ages. This is a great way to swap out all of those puzzles you've already completed, that are sitting in a pile in your closet and taking up space!!
The puzzle exchange is located inside the main library, through the 'Reference' doorway, and a quick turn to the right! The puzzles are on the shelf across from the card catalog computer and below the audiobooks!

Help support the library and let everyone know where YOU go to get lit!!
(We mean LITERATURE, lol!!) We have purple shirts in adult unisex sizes from M to XXL. While supplies last! Suggested donation is $15.
