Friday Night Films
The Friday Night Films Series, entering its fourth year, has shown 170 films from 18 countries such as the USA, Mongolia, France, Spain, Denmark, and Sweden. The Friends of the Library subsidize the public viewing license and the audience's donations provide the films which then go to the library's film collection. Most films are shown closed captioned.
