The Friends of the British Library is a registered charitable organisation in the UK with close links to the British Library. It provides funding in the form of grants to the British Library in order to allow the Library to acquire new items and collections, procure new equipment and facilities, and produce exhibitions. ==Origin==
The inaugural meeting of the ''Friends'' was held on 12 January 1989 with the objective of "the education of the public by promotion, support, assistance and improvement of the British Library through the activities of a group of Friends".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Friends of the British Library Annual Report 2004/05 ) 〕 It operates under a written constitution as an unincorporated association and registered charity. The ''Friends'' first President was Lord Eccles, a man heavily involved in the original creation of the British Library via the British Library Act (1972) as well as being the British Library's first Chairman. He would be President of the ''Friends'' from its creation in 1989 until his death in 1999. The first Chairman of the Friends of the British Library was Christopher Henry Beaumont Pease, 2nd Baron Wardington. He became a Vice President in 1994, and President in 1999 – a post he held until his death in 2005.
