About Our Programs

The Mammen Family Public Library offers a variety of programs to promote literacy, inspire a lifelong love of learning, and support the arts, science and literary needs of our community. Our library programs are primarily funded by a generous donation from the Mammen Family Foundation. The Mammen family’s donation was designated to be used solely to provide programming for the community, and the funds are expected to last between 20-40 years.
