About Us
The Friends of the Chevy Chase Library (FOCCL), founded in 1995, is a community-based all-volunteer organization dedicated to enhancing our library and connecting the community to the library. We are independent of both Montgomery County Public Library and Friends of the Library Montgomery County (FOLMC). Our events are always free and open to the public. We are a membership organization that meets once a year to elect the board. Membership is $20 per year. Members receive a periodic newsletter, an invitation to the annual meeting and related events, and the satisfaction of knowing you are contributing to making our library stronger. Please note that your contribution to the Friends of the Chevy Chase Library is tax-deductible the the maximum extent allowable by law. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization registered with IRS and the State of Maryland (tax identification number is 52-1931507).
