Why give to the Anchorage Library Foundation?
Dreams are free, but the libraries that inspire them are not. The Anchorage Public Library depends on support from donors like you to provide the power of information, imagination, and inspiration to the people of our community, free of charge to all. From government agencies and private foundations to local businesses and individuals- you are the key to our success. Your donation today will make the difference.

Thanks to the generous commitment of dedicated friends, the Anchorage Public Library can expand its branches and continue to provide books and information as well as educational programs to the over 850,000 users who come through our doors each year.

There are many different ways you can help.

Why donate to a tax-supported institution?
The Anchorage Public Library is a department of the Municipality of Anchorage, which provides funding for staff, collections, facilities, and operating expenses.
 
As the Library continues to expand its service to the community, the Library Foundation partners with the private sector to secure funds to support programs and resources not included in the city budget. Among these are: new libraries in Girdwood, Muldoon, Mountain View and Chugiak-Eagle River, technology upgrades, and upgrades to the Samson-Dimond and Loussac Libraries.

Can I contribute directly to my branch library?
Yes, the Library Foundation operates distinct fundraising campaigns for each of its branches. If you would like to direct a gift to your branch, please note the branch name on your check, payable to the Anchorage Library Foundation, and mail it to:
