Thanks to the neighbors who helped clear snow near the library!
Friends of Southwest Library
We support the library and its members through book sales throughout the year. Anyone just wanting to lend a hand on occasion is also welcome.
We advocate for the DC Public Library before government bodies and help to alert the public on the programs offered. We welcome new members who can help sort books, accept books from the public on donation days, and help with special outside events. Hope to see you soon!

This week is Little Free Library week! We are so fortunate in SW DC to have a generous supply of donated books some of which we distribute to several Little Free Libraries in the city especially to the 5 we have in our SW neighborhood. It is very gratifying to see people from all backgrounds come up to the libraries, take a look at the books and pick some out to read.
