Giving
There
are five ways to show your support for the Hall County library through
giving. Your gift is tax deductible since the library system is a
501c3 organization. For more information please call 770-532-3311
x 134.
Monetary:
Monetary donations are greatly appreciated because they allow the
library to purchase materials from a vendor at a discount and receive
them already processed and cataloged, so they can be immediately placed
in circulation upon receipt.
The library is currently upgrading its equipment and furnishings in
the main library in Gainesville and the Blackshear Place Branch. A
gift to purchase an item in recognition of someone would last many
years and be seen and appreciated by thousands of library patrons
in Hall County.
Please
make checks out to: Hall County Library System.
Materials:
The Hall County Library System will be pleased to consider gifts of
books, CD music, computer CDs, DVDs, and videos. The material will
be assessed for appropriateness for the library collection. Material
deemed unsuitable or unnecessary will not be returned to the original
donor but donated to the Friends of Hall County Library for sale to
raise additional funds. We do not accept donations of magazines or
textbooks.
To
donate a book in memory or in honor of someone, please make sure to
put the information on a gift form or tell a staff member if dropping
a new book by the branch. The staff at your local branch can help
you complete a gift form.
Wishlist:
A Quick and Easy and easy way to donate from home is to just click
on the Amazon Wish List and place your order. The books will be delivered
directly to the library.
Friends:
The Friends of Hall County Library System accepts donations. All funds
the organization raises go directly to supporting library programs
such as Vacation Reading, staff training and author visits.
Foundation: The library is part of the North Georgia Community Foundation
and maintains a development fund earning interest that will be used
in future capital campaigns to improve programs and services. This
is a lasting gift that will impact the lives of future generations.
