The Polish Library in Washington, founded in 1991 by a group of volunteers led by Tadeusz Walendowski, aims to serve the local Polish community and promote Polish culture to a wider audience through its collection of over 7,000 books and 300 DVDs, as well as various activities such as film screenings, lectures, and concerts.
Operated exclusively by volunteers and governed by a council elected annually, the library requires a small annual membership fee to borrow books and movies, which helps fund the purchase of new materials, subscriptions, and other operational costs. The completion of the Class of 1926 project, digitalizing volumes of Polish Declarations of Admiration and Friendship for the United States, showcases the library's commitment to preserving and sharing Polish heritage.
