Friends of the Library organizations are non-profit groups of volunteers dedicated to promoting and supporting library services in their community. The Friends groups are organized and run by community members with the support of Library staff.
In Haldimand County, we have active Friends of the Library groups for our Caledonia and Dunnville branches. If you’re interested in joining the Friends of the Library, contact the associated library branch.
Follow the Caledonia Friends of the Library on Facebook to stay informed on their activities.
Meetings may take place in-person or virtually. If you are interested in attending a meeting, please contact the outreach coordinator for details.
A "book club" where there are no assigned readings, mandatory discussions, or pressure to finish a book on time.
Taking part is easy. Bring anything you want to read to the Caledonia branch (book, eBook, audiobook, textbook, magazine, anything you would like!) or choose something from the library branch. Then relax in one of our comfy chairs by the fireplace, introduce yourself to fellow readers, and settle in to read quietly for an hour.
Everyone is welcome. No Registration is necessary.
"Whenever you wander or head out to roam,
On vacation, relaxing, or close to home.
Bring a good book and your Friends’ library duck.
Snap some fun photos and tag me for luck!"
- Cali (Friends of the Caledonia Library mascot)
Cost: $5.00
All proceeds go towards supporting Library and Friends programs.
