Kennebunk and Arundel Residents Vote to Support KFL

The Kennebunk Free Library Board of Trustees and staff want to thank our community for supporting recent library warrant articles. Residents of Kennebunk voted on June 11th to appropriate funds to support the Kennebunk Free Library's FY 14 budget request, and the following day, Arundel residents voted at their annual Town Meeting to also appropriate funds for the library in FY 14!

We are very pleased to announce that effective immediately Arundel residents will be able to obtain a KFL library card and have full access to the library's collections and other offerings without paying a Non-Resident Fee. According to policy: "We require proof of identity and proof of residency. All applicants must present proof of residency, owning property/paying taxes, or renter status. Acceptable proof includes, but is not limited to, a lease, mortgage bill, tax bill, or utility bill mailed to the address used for residency."
