Friends of the Ann Arbor District Library
The Friends of the Ann Arbor District Library (FAADL) is a non-profit organization with a mission to promote knowledge of and interest in the resources of the public library, to raise funds for its services and programs, and to provide volunteer assistance as needed.
Comprised of dedicated volunteers, FAADL supports library programs such as the Summer Reading Program for young people and offers services such as delivery to the homebound. The Book Shop is a special place where books, video materials, and other items are sold at low prices, enabling the community to recycle used books and benefit the library at the same time. Founded in 1953, FAADL has been a strong public advocate for the library, beginning with support for the construction of the downtown building in 1957, the launching of outreach programs, and the development of the branch libraries. Our role as public "ambassadors" for the library is educational and rewarding.
