This Giving Tuesday, help your library make more possible.
A first book. A new skill. A welcoming place to belong. A chance to connect, discover, and grow.
Every day, our library opens doors for people throughout our community. Children discover the joy of reading. Students find the resources they need to succeed. Job seekers access technology and build skills. Neighbours come together to learn and connect.
But a library’s impact doesn’t happen on its own. It happens because our community believes that everyone deserves access to knowledge, opportunity, and connection. This Giving Tuesday, you can help make that possible.
Your gift makes a difference. Your contribution helps support:
- Books and literacy opportunities
- Educational activities and programs for children and families
- Technology and digital learning resources
- Welcoming, accessible community spaces
- Programs and events that bring neighbours together
Growing up, the library was a safe space for me to be myself. During an age of isolation, we need spaces like this to foster community and belonging for all.
Community begins at the steps of the Brockville Public Library.
Brockville Public Library is one of our City’s most used and welcoming resource hubs for patrons of all ages.
Adopt a Book
Purchase a new book for the library’s collection and be the first to read it once it comes in! You will receive a tax receipt and a book plate will be placed in the book in acknowledgement of your thoughtfulness.
Adopt one of our suggested titles using the button below. To adopt a book that is not listed, speak to staff during your next visit.
Donate Securities or Mutual Funds
A donation of securities or mutual funds is the most efficient way to give charitably. Since capital gains taxes do not apply, our charity receives the full fair market value when the security is sold, and you get a tax receipt which reflects your larger contribution, allowing you to give more and get more.
Book Donations
We welcome your donation of books. However, due to space limitations, we can only accept 10 books at one time that meet the below guidelines.
We can accept:
- Fiction and nonfiction books less than 2 years from the publishing date
We cannot accept:
- Reader’s Digest, magazines, encyclopedias or textbooks
- Damaged, musty or mildewed items
Used book donations will be reviewed and either added to our collection or used in future book sales.
