Thank you for participating in our Library Giving Day fundraiser. Although we did not meet our goal, we are delighted to have over $500 to put toward our e-resource collection. That amount will provide access to at least three e-books/audio books that would have been beyond our budget. We will leave the collection container on the counter for a few more days. Library Giving Day may be over, but the need for more e-resources continues.
The Princeton Public Library invites the community to join Library Giving Day on Wednesday, April 1—a one-day online fundraiser to expand our digital collection of eBooks and audiobooks.
More than half of our cardholders already use the library’s digital collection, and in February alone, hundreds of eBooks and audiobooks were borrowed. But digital materials are costly and come with limits: a title that costs $14.99 for a reader can cost the library up to $95, and many titles must be repurchased after just a few years or a limited number of checkouts.
Your gift can make an immediate difference. With a goal of $1,000, we hope to add at least 10 new audiobooks, giving more readers timely access to the stories they love. Every donation helps keep information, learning, and imagination within reach.
Donate in person, USPS, or online via Paypal at www.princetonpl.org.
You can also support broader access by advocating for the Digital Library Protection Act (HB 5236) and asking your state legislator to sign on as a co-sponsor.
