The Friends of the Brentwood was formed on October 13, 2013 following a successful campaign by community leaders, customers, community organizations, to save the Brentwood Library from closing. The campaign and organization was formed under the leadership and guidance of Sharon Coon.
The mission of the Friends of Brentwood Public Library is to serve as an advocate for the library, an urban core library, and to support educational activities while bringing awareness to the community on the libraries resourcces.
