A book can provide a lasting tribute to the memory of a loved one or provide a unique way to honor special events such as birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, or other special occasions.  Your tax deductible gift to the library will not only be a lasting memorial, but will also bring enjoyment and knowledge to the community.

Each memorial book will have a special bookplate which gives the name of the person to whom the book is dedicated and the name of the donor.  The library will also send a letter to the person being honored or the surviving family.

Donors may suggest a specific title or have the librarian choose a title in a designated subject area.  The minimum suggested donation for a memorial book is $15.00

Memorials may be made by downloading and printing our Memorial Book Request PDF down below. 

Please mail your donation and the form to the library.
