Building Relationships… Making Connections. Dr. Charles Hanson, Director Kettering University Library

Define the mission: What do you want (expect) from your Friends? Advocate Social Planner Fundraiser Volunteers Public Relations

Why does the library need Friends? To continuously improve the Library and Archives. To promote connections with administration, faculty, staff, and students. To advance technologically. To preserve historical resources of industry, business, and GMI/Kettering University history.

What does FOLA do? Host speaker series, gaming nights, and special events for the Kettering University community and FOLA members. Host receptions to show appreciation for Kettering students, faculty, and staff. Organize the annual Book Sale and Silent Auction and member appreciation event.

What does FOLA do? Promote activities to highlight the services of the Library and Archives (e.g., Chevrolet 100 th Celebration, July 17-23, 2011). Raise money to support the Library and Archives.

FOLA Benefits FOLA members are permitted to check out materials from the library. Members may receive discounts on FOLA events and programs. Friends receive a tax deductible receipt with their thank you letter.

FOLA Benefits Friends are invited to “members only” events (Sodexo Food Services). Friends can serve on committees or participate in sponsored activities (e.g., FOLA Fundraising Action Committee).

The Ten Commandments of a Successful Friends Group 1. The library director must be in favor of a friends group. 2. The library staff must be willing to work with Friends. 3. All parties involved must realize that a time commitment is involved and that a successful group is no accident. 4. The library must agree on which of its resources will be used by the Friends. 5. A committed core group must exist. From the Friends of the Marple Public Library, Broomall, PA

The Ten Commandments of a Successful Friends Group 6. The authority to which the library director reports must recognize the Friends group. 7. Communication must be open to the full library community. 8. All those involved in the Friends must realize that the Friends group does not make library policy. 9. The library must decide, in discussion with the Friends, the roles it wishes the group to play. 10. Money raised by the Friends should be disbursed by them as they see fit. From the Friends of the Marple Public Library, Broomall, PA

10 Reasons Why an Academic Library Might Want a Friends Group 1. Friends promote collaboration and cooperation. 2. Friends provide opportunities for networking. 3. Friends can assist with marketing and promoting your library. 4. Friends can offer opportunities for fundraising. 5. Friends can lift you up when you are down.

10 Reasons Why an Academic Library Might Want a Friends Group 6. Friends can help you celebrate. 7. Friends can speak (sometimes loudly) in support of your library. 8. Friends can maximize professional development and involvement. 9. Friends can provide a sense of pride and accomplishment. 10. The Friends mission is strongly aligned with the academic library’s mission.
