The Friends support the work of the public library system in Albany, NY.
Book reviews and other events every Tuesday at noon in the Main Branch.
It's clear, you love your libraries! We hope you'll consider making a generous contribution to APL's Annual Appeal.
The Albany Public Library changes lives, answering life's most complex questions and serving as the public's destination for social, intellectual and cultural discourse.
As our world changes, Albany's libraries face new challenges with increased demand for more books, materials, and programs housed in aging and outdated facilities. That's why your annual contribution is so important.
Your gifts to the library though The Albany Public Library Foundation means the difference between adequate libraries and great libraries. With private support, we can expand our collections and services to include more of what customers want in materials, technology, and programs.
So, look for the Annual Appeal information in the mail. We thank you.
Donations can be sent to Albany Public Library Foundation, 161, Washington Avenue, Albany, New York 12210. Credit Card contributions can be processed by calling 518-427-4346.

I love this book. Yassin Aref is a beautiful write and a beautiful person. The story or the government's crimes against him is shameful.
But in my work in the community here, I notice that many my students have fathers in prison, and many of those dads are wrongfully incarcerated.
I believe Yassin Aref, who worked within Albany's least privileged communities, wonders the same thing.
I hope this review will cover prison issues, not just the prison issues that can be used to confront this atrocious war.
Everyone's life needs to be seen as equal.
Yes, celebrate Aref's bravery and talents -- his beautiful life's work. But also notice that he is not alone -- and the movement to remember ALL the survivors of the prions industrial state is far too silent in our town.
Is Aref seeking pardon from President Obama?
Can we support that.... How?
