Auburn Library Association
The Auburn Public Library Association founded the Auburn Public Library in 1888. In 1968, the Association turned its assets over to the city as the Cranston Public Library system was formed. Since then, the Association has continued to support the Auburn Branch. Membership dues and donations are used for books, supplies and programs.
