Thank you to all who donated, baked, and came to our Pi(e) Day event. It was a huge success!! We sold 27 pies in an hour and made over $900 to help support our library programming. This event will definitely be coming back next year!

We now have a merchandise website up and running! Tote bags, cinch backpacks, tumblers, notebooks, and shirts are all available with a variety of logos from both FOLL and the Ledyard Libraries. Proceeds from each item purchased will come back to the Friends to help support our libraries. We do hope to get some tote bags to have on hand in the libraries but for now items can all be ordered online thru Make Your Mark Customs under the Friends link.
