Ways to Give to the Library
Contributions
The library depends upon and gratefully welcomes monetary donations any time. Please consider the library for your monthly or annual giving. Even a gift of $5.00/month makes a very large impact.
Please use the DONATE button below to make an online gift via credit card, paypal, or venmo.
You may also send a check or money order made payable to McBride Memorial Library, or visit the library with a cash payment.
Over 60% of McBride’s funding comes from direct and indirect contributions, through the Community Giving Foundation, trusts and bequests, and special fundraising events. McBride Memorial Library is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation; therefore, donations to the library are tax deductible.
The library’s year-end Annual Appeal provides a treasured opportunity for donors to contribute to the library.
McBride Memorial Library thanks you for your generous tax deductible gift.
Donate Books and Other Materials
McBride Memorial Library accepts donations of books and materials for its ongoing book sale held in the on site Book Cellar (2024 and 2025 Press Enterprise Best of the Best Bookstore) throughout the year.
Memorial & Tribute Gifts
Tribute gifts of any amount are appreciated and will be acknowledged to those being honored and their family members. Contributions of $35 (the average cost of a book plus processing) or more can be dedicated to the purchase of a new book in someone’s honor. This special book purchase will include a memorial book plate and the book will be placed in the library collection.
An honorary contribution to the library fits any occasion – a birthday, an anniversary, a holiday, or the desire to honor the memory of a special person.
Monetary gifts may also be given for the purchase of online collections, equipment, facility support, children’s programming, or general program support in memory or honor of an individual. When possible, the honoree is acknowledged with an inscribed name of the recipient and the contributor and/or added to the online catalog record, as appropriate. A card of acknowledgement is also sent to the individual or family in whose honor or memory the gift is being made.
Please inquire at the library if you wish to make a memorial or tribute gift.
