A Library Book Wish List

As a nonprofit organization, we do our best to provide the newest, most popular items for our community. Like, the new Freida McFadden novels that everyone wants to read, the middle grade series that all the kids have to have as soon as each new one comes out, large print versions of new releases, the most relevant and current nonfiction, and other sought-after books. As everyone that buys anything knows, though, prices go up and it gets harder to stretch a budget.

It’s easier to upcycle materials or find good deals on craft supplies than it is to save much money on brand new books coming out, so that where our favorite supporters like you come in.

Inspired by other libraries in the area, we’ve compiled a wish list of books across several genres that we’d like to share with you. If you are so inclined to purchase a book for the library off of this list, share the wish list with your friends or family, donate money for us to purchase a certain book (or any of our choosing), or any other support you can give, we would be so grateful!

We will also have some leaves on our giving tree in the library that you can “purchase” and sponsor a book that way.

We are having our annual Christmas basket fundraiser! We will have the silent auction items in an album in this event and in person in the library, and bidding will be in both places as well. Bidding will begin at 9am Saturday, December 7th, and close at 5pm Friday, December 13th. Auction winners must be picked up by Saturday, December 21st at noon.

The auction rounds out our fundraising for the year, and helps pay for programs like Storytime, kids’ crafts, adult crafts, book club, and summer reading, as well as books and other materials for our collection. We are so appreciative of the community support we get each year with this fundraiser!
