One way to “Love Your Library” this month is to make a donation to support our library collections. We welcome monetary donations of any size to purchase books, DVDs, and other library materials.
One way to make a unique donation is to support the purchase of a yearly subscription to a magazine on behalf of the library. Here’s a wish list of magazines that we would like to include in our collection but do not have the funds for at this time, or you could sponsor an existing subscription. You can make a donation directly to the library and note that it is for one of these titles.
If there’s another title you’d like to donate to our shelves, contact the librarian to ask about if it would fit in our collection development policies.
