FOMPL Flash Mob Spreads Awareness About
Literacy
An outbreak of FOMPL has people in Marshfield
more informed about their public library.
A FOMPL flash mob surprised unsuspecting
people at the Marshfield Public Library, Festival Foods, and Pick N' Save in
Marshfield on Sunday. The flash mob placed a question in people's minds, as
well as answered it as they sang, "I'm a FOMPL. He's a FOMPL. She's a
FOMPL. If you join FOMPL, you can be a FOMPL too."
Many wondered, what in the world is a
FOMPL?
Maureen Mercier - FOMPL President
"It's an acronym for Friends of the
Marshfield Public Library and we're a very friendly group," FOMPL's
President, Maureen Mercier said.
They are a group that raises money to
provide extra resources like new computers, additions to book collections and
even furniture for the Marshfield Public Library. They also put together a few
programs throughout the year.
"The library obviously has certain
restrictions in it's budget and many things that happen in the library could
not happen without FOMPL," said Mercier.
FOMPL members said a well funded library
is a must to meet the needs of the community, but there is only one problem.
"People in town don't know who we
are," said FOMPL Secretary and Publicity Chair, Darlene Berry. "They
don't know what we do." READ MORE !
