Friends of The Whittemore Library

The Friends of the Whittemore Library is a 501(c)(3) non-profit association that was founded in 1983 to support the library and its staff by focusing public attention on library services; supporting the needs and facilities of the library; and stimulating the giving of gifts, endowments, and bequests.

The Friends holds events throughout the year, including its annual used book sale at the Naugatuck Harvest Moon Festival. Proceeds from this event and others are directed to the enhancement of the library collection, expansion and replacement of its equipment, and development of its programs.

The Friends is governed by a board of directors, which includes a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and five additional members at large. The organization is a proud member of Friends of Connecticut Libraries (FOCL) .

Current Officers Are:
Patrick Scalisi (President)
Corrina Palorino (Vice-President)
Michelle Kemp (Secretary)
Bev Hudson (Treasurer)
