The Joseph T. Simpson Public Library needs your support to continue expanding the library’s collections with new materials.  Books remain one of the main library services requested by the more than 750 people who visit our library every day.  Each year, it is important to add new releases and best sellers to our children, teen, and adult collections.

February 21, 2017, marks the beginning of the library’s annual Simpson Signature Selections fundraising campaign.  Our goal this year is to raise a minimum of $13,000 through tax-deductible donations to this unique fundraising campaign.

What makes this campaign different from others is that you have the opportunity to personally select where you would like your donation to be focused.  The list of items contains a wide variety of genres from which you can choose. Every new selection will have a bookplate inserted recognizing the name of the donor. This is a wonderful opportunity to show support of your library and add materials that you would like to read for leisure or to use in researching your hobbies and interests.

What sparks your interest?  What materials would you enjoy having available for your reading pleasure?  Your financial support will enable us to direct our purchase of materials for patrons of all ages.

Once again, we ask you to please consider supporting us through a tax-deductible donation to the Simpson Signature Selections fundraising campaign.

Thank you for your support as we continue providing library services to our community of readers.
