Donate
You can support the Library directly with monetary donations and donations of property, such as gently used books, DVDs, CDs, and other similar materials. The Friends of the Library and the Library Foundation, separate charitable organizations that support the Library, also accept donations and bequests.
Commemorative Gifts
Remember a loved one, celebrate a milestone, or honor a friend through the Library's Commemorative Gift Program. Funds under this program are used to purchase a new book and place a memorial bookplate inside to honor or recognize the person or event. The minimum donation amount is $30. Inquiries can be made to the Business Office. The Library also accepts commemorative donations on a larger scale and anyone interested is encouraged to reach out to the Executive Director to discuss how those funds may be used.
