Membership
Overview
Full Membership in the Friends of the Portsmouth Public
Library is attained by completing the Membership Form and submitting
payment for the selected level of membership. Our membership year
corresponds to the calendar year. Dues notices are sent out in January.
New members who join late in the year (after November 1) are
automatically credited for the next full calendar year.

A new membership dues
structure was introduced for CY 2004. Our membership approved the
introduction of a Sustaining Membership Program intended to
enhance our level of support to our Library System. The minimum entry
levels for individuals and families were retained. No new Lifetime
Memberships will be issued, but all privileges of the current
Lifetime Members would not be changed. The complete structure is shown
to the right.
All members are encouraged to attend our quarterly
meetings, held in the Main Library, and to take an active role in
support of our Book Sales, Library Volunteer programs, and our
organizational activities such as newsletter preparation, membership
programs and Friends promotions. |
