Friends of Bayfield Library (FOBL) is a non-profit organization of volunteers that exists to establish closer ties between the Bayfield Library and the local community, increase awareness of the functions and resources of the library, promote literacy, and raise funds for special projects. With the funds raised from FOBL memberships, the Red Table Book Sale, and Red Cart book sales, we are able to organize or sponsor many great events!
Coffee & Chat
Enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while engaging in neutral and inclusive conversation with other community members. The Coffee & Chat program is offered every Tuesday afternoon in the library meeting room during the fall and winter months. All are welcome!
Craft Programs & Classic Films
Throughout the year, FOBL sponsors craft and learning programs for children as well as the screening of classic films. Dates, times, and registration information are posted on our website as well as our Facebook and Instagram pages.
Red Table Book Sale
The Red Table Book Sale is available each year at the library from the end of June until the end of August. Watch for outdoor pop-up book sales on selected Saturdays during the summer months. Proceeds from these book sales are used to support activities and programs at the Bayfield Library throughout the year.
Red Cart Books
The Red Cart offers a selection of gently used books for all ages and covers a variety of interests. This is a great option for visitors who are looking for a book to read but don’t have a library card. Find out more about this year-round book sale at the Bayfield Library.
