Area of Greatest Need
Your gift gives us the greatest flexibility in responding to emerging opportunities.

Adopt-a-Book  
You love the way a book feels, even the way it smells.  So why not share your love by adding new books to our collection?  You can even recognize the name of a friend or loved one with a commemorative bookplate in the books purchased with your gift.

Adopt-a-Program
The library offers many educational programs that impact thousands in our community.  Share your passion for knowledge by supporting programs that inspire children and adults to read, dream and achieve.

Endowment Fund Gift
A gift that supports the library, year after year.  By giving to the library’s endowment fund today, you provide us with a steady stream of revenue that ensures the health and vitality of the library for years to come.

Celebration of Learning
Our annual fall fundraiser is an intimate evening featuring a well-known author, the presentation of the Julian Sinclair Smith Award to a central Ohio resident and dinner from a sampling of the area's best restaurants, all amid the stacks of the beautiful Main Library downtown. Please join us!
