Hopkinton Public Library Foundation, Inc.
January 4, 2012
 
The Hopkinton Public Library Foundation, Inc. announced its formation as a new non-profit entity designed to support the Hopkinton Public Library.
 
Founded in September 2011, the Foundation will spearhead efforts to raise private funds for the expansion and state-of-the-art renovation of Hopkinton Public Library, pending receipt of a Library Construction Grant from the state and final approval from the Town of Hopkinton.  Following the expansion, the Foundation will provide ongoing funding for long-term enhancements of the library, such as print and electronic collections and community-responsive programs for children, teens and adults.  This expansion and improvement will make Hopkinton Public Library truly the educational and cultural center of Hopkinton, offering all residents enhanced access to information, entertainment and knowledge through materials, programs and cutting-edge technology.   In May 2011, Hopkinton Annual Town Meeting approved the proposed plan for renovation and expansion.  These plans, and a virtual tour, are available online. Select the "Library Expansion Project" option from the left colum of this page.
