Our Mission

The Friends of the Somerset County Library, also known as the Friends of the Bridgewater Library, is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping the library make information and knowledge accessible to the communities it serves. The Friends purchases special materials, enhances the library environment, and sponsors numerous programs throughout the year. Funds are generated by book sales and donations.
