The Barrington Public Library Foundation supports the library by raising private funds to cover the cost of library enhancements and capital projects such as the new first-floor study rooms and future building renovations.
The Foundation also manages memorial and legacy donations such as those used to create The Amanda Robidoux Reading Nook and The Calvin and Jean Cronin Fund to bring music to the library.
Take a look at this short video and learn about the Foundation and our Trustees and about how the support of patrons like you helps the library in our mission to provide free access to empowering life-enriching knowledge.
The Barrington Public Library Foundation holds a yearly drive (November-December) to help raise the private funds necessary to cover the cost of library enhancements and capital projects not covered by local tax revenue. Donations are accepted year-round.
For more information about Legacy Donations (Donors who want to remember the Library through a bequest or gift) and Memorial Donations (Donations in the form of a memorial or tribute offer family and friends a meaningful way to remember or celebrate a loved one), please contact the Library Director for more information:
