Donate to the Friends of Katie Lamb Public Library
Fundraisers
With your donation, a minimum of $30.00, Library Staff will select a book in the subject area of your choice. A bookplate inside the book will note the name of the person in whose memory or honor a book is being given. The Library will send an acknowledgement of your donation to the family or to the honoree. Staff can also arrange a hold to be placed on the book so that the family or honoree may be the first person to see and enjoy the donated book.
