as a way of earning quick money, and is discovered as a new talent.
The public is welcome and encouraged to attend.

THREE CUPS OF TEA:
One Man’s Mission to Promote Peace...One
School at a Time
by
Greg Mortenson and
David Oliver Relin
Having survived a failed attempt to climb K2, Greg
Mortenson turned to building schools in remote regions of Afghanistan
and Pakistan. He applied his unique background and intimate knowledge
of the third-world to fight terrorism with books, not bombs, and bring
education and hope to remote villages. THREE CUPS OF TEA is at once an
unforgettable adventure and the inspiring true story of how one man
really is changing the world—one school at a time.
Pick up a copy of the book. Come join the
discussion.
Everyone welcome. Free and open to the
public

WHO WE ARE
The Friends of the Dover Free Library was formed
in 2006 to support the staff by assisting with ongoing tasks and
programs, fundraising, and co-creating additional events that provide
opportunities for lifelong learning. The Friends of the DFL
include full-time and seasonal East and West Dover residents who value
the many ways in which our library enriches our community and
contributes to our quality of life. There is no cost to
membership; the only requirement is a desire to support the library.
The Friends are led by four officers and three directors who are
elected annually. VIEW THE FRIENDS’ BY-LAWS (51K PDF).
