| Membership in the Pequot Library Association
The Pequot Library Association (PLA) is at the core of all that Pequot is and does. A part of the Library from its founding 120 years ago, the PLA supports the Library’s mission to bring literature, music, art and the humanities to the community. Pequot Library is an association library, given to the community by Mr. and Mrs. Elbert Monroe, of Southport, CT, in 1894 and since then it has become a true American treasure and a center for civic pride.
Pequot is a cultural center that hosts a set of musical and educational series and where children are introduced to the magic of reading and launched on the path to being lifelong learners. We preserve a nationally important special collection of rare books, manuscripts and other materials, a collection begun the Library’s founders and increased over the years.
