Supporting the Pound Ridge Library benefits you, your family, and your community.

Libraries are pillars of culture and education, making it possible for us to discover more about each other and the world around us. They are also resource centers that promote lifelong learning, foster community-building, and offer free access to information, activities, and programming—for all.

Since 2004, the Pound Ridge Library Foundation has had one goal: Raise funds to preserve, support, and improve the Pound Ridge Library. Our much-loved library has always played a vital role in our town. Learn more about us and how you can help us maintain it.

“A library outranks any other one thing a community can do to benefit its people.”
