Help Us Write Dover’s Next Chapter
Renovations are underway at the Dover Public Library. We are working with SMP Architecture on an addition to our historic Carnegie library which includes an expansion of the children’s room, increased meeting space on the third floor, accessible bathrooms, and so much more! The Friends of the Dover Public Library is seeking donations from generous donations from community members and businesses to support the library in completing these renovations.
Make a donation and help us write Dover’s next chapter.

We have created the following named giving opportunities that will honor your donation by naming a space in our newly renovated building after you or your business:
Cornerstone Donor – $100,000+
- Children’s Room
- Lecture Hall
- Adult Collections
- Trustee’s Room
Visionary Donor – $50,000+
- Circulation Desk
- Meeting Rooms
Impact Donor – $10,000+
- Reading Alcoves
- Office Spaces
Email our team at fdlnhdevelopment@friendsofthedoverlibrary.org for more details about naming opportunities.
Community Giving Through GoFundMe
For those of you who would like to help on a smaller scale, we’ve launched a GoFundMe campaign to help support our renovation efforts, making giving more accessible for all of our community members. Every donation makes a big difference! If you aren’t able to give at this time but would still like to support this important project, please share our fundraiser with your friends and family. Though the Friends supports the library throughout the year, this is a once in a generation opportunity to make a statement and support the expansion of a core resource in the Dover Community.
Join our next meeting!
The Friends typically meet at 5:30PM on the second Tuesday of each month at the Library. All Friends and interested members of the public are welcome!
