Our annual winter fundraiser, Give the Gift of Reading, ends on January 31. Help us make this year's effort a success by giving a tax-deductible donation to the Friends of Washoe County Library by the end of the month. Twenty dollars is enough to sponsor one new children's book and help us reach our goal of raising $20,000 – enough to purchase 1,000 new children's books for our libraries' collections.
Visit the Friends of Washoe County Library website to learn about other ways to help support the library system, including becoming a Friends member or shopping at their upcoming book sale.
