Story

The 2023 Friends of the Ocala Public Library Read-A-Thon is scheduled for Saturday, August 5, 2023 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. live in the Headquarters Library lobby. Library supporters will be reading from Susan Orlean's The Library Book throughout the day.

The Ocala Public Library provides many valuable services to the community. People of all ages benefit from access to books, educational programs, computers and internet, and dozens of other services.

The Friends are major contributors to programs for patrons of all ages -- from toddlers to seniors, they support library staff through educational grants, and they provide the community with information on library programs through a quarterly magazine.

About the charity

Friends of the Ocala Public Library supports children and adult library programs, supplements library staff training, publishes the WORDS magazine, sponsors visiting author talks, educates the community about library services, and advocates for library funding.
