Our History
The FLC opened its doors

in 2002. The FLC was originally funded by an RI Education Reading Grant. After the grant expired, the Lincoln School Department and the Town of Lincoln began funding the program. As of July 2010, the Center became funded solely by the Town of Lincoln and fundraising efforts. We now have over 11,000 books on our shelves, and more than 1000 families as members. Become a Member Today!  Stop by the Center, fill out a short form, and become a member of our community. You do not have to be a Lincoln resident to become a member.
