There is a New Friends Group in Town!!
Over the pandemic three women in Winthrop, Massachusetts took on the brave and difficult task of taking over the Friends of the Winthrop Library from the esteemed Maria and Ronald Bergman. Mikayla Dalton (President), Amy Carroll (Treasurer) and Sondra Aresty (Secretary) heeded the call that it was time for the Bergmans to step down and have been working hard since to establish the new Friends group so that it can continue to help the library with funds for programming and improvements. All three women feel strongly that the library is a key part of our community and so have dived into learning how to run this organization and get our beloved Bookends back up and running. The bookstore is up and running and will continue to need community help and participation to keep it going. Please contact the group directly if you're interested in donating your time.
