​Friends is the key partner that has given us our award-winning Library. We are the national model of a socially invested library, priding ourselves on being the most democratic of institutions. If you go to any of our neighborhood libraries, you will see a sign prominently displayed that says, “All Are Welcome.” Friends’ support helps make that possible. Our partnership is vital to providing a world-class library for the entire community of San Franciscans.

That’s why I give to Friends.”
Michael Lambert, City Librarian
