Providing an outstanding library for the people of Arlington
We’ll see you there!
2026 Fall Book Sale will be September 22-25.
Our goals:
Bring together people who share an interest in libraries.
Promote public awareness and community support for the library system.
Encourage gifts and fundraising activities that benefit the Arlington Public Library System.
Your donation makes a difference. The city allocates funds to the Arlington Library for book and materials purchases, employees, and maintenance. But most of the funding for the library’s events come from the Friends and Foundation of the Arlington Public Library as well as outside grants. Since 2019, FFAPL has given our library more than $800,000.
