Purpose

The Friends of the Fitchburg Public Library (FPL) establish closer relations between the library and the people it serves, promotes support of services, and funds several important services such purchasing books for the library and the fees for the museum passes.

The Friends work with area museums to bring you Museum Passes you can use to visit exhibits for reduced fees.
