Ways to Support Us

Ways to Support the Lorain Public Library System, Inc.

1. Join the Friends group of your local library.

The purpose of "Friends of the Library" groups is to support our libraries through volunteering or through fundraising activities. Through fundraising activities, the Friends finance library programs, help purchase equipment for the library, and provide monies for other projects that cannot be funded through the library's budget. Friends provide help as requested by the librarian who serves as a liaison to the group. They help with programs and are advocates for the library in their communities.

2. Donate a gift book.

A gift to the library is a thoughtful and lasting way to celebrate and acknowledge special people in your life. Make a donation to the library as a gift to a friend. Remember and celebrate a special person's life by making a memorial gift - complete with bookplates.

3. Contribute to the Foundation.

The Foundation of the Lorain Public Library System, Inc. allows your charitable gift of today and bequests for tomorrow to ensure the long term future of the community's cornerstone - the public library. All gifts are tax deductible. For more information, call 440-244-1192 or 1-800-322-READ, ext. 263.
