CONTACT YOUR LOCAL LEGISLATORS!!!

Here is a document to help say why the library is important to them. You can call. You can email. You can even use snail mail. The more positive contact that they receive about libraries helps them as they advocate for library funding.

Ways to Support the Library:

Join our Ways & Means Committee. The Ways & Means hosts our annual Bake Sale, Plant Sale and Book Sale. Volunteers are always needed.
Join in the FUNdraisers. Host a table at our Annual Tea Party, buy tickets for basket raffles (held throughout the year), dine on delicious chicken BBQ at the History Fair and spend time reading during our Read-A-Thon.
Donate Books. The library accepts gently used books published with-in the last ten years. Donated items not used for our circulation collection may be used for our annual book sale.
Volunteer. Our library could not function without our wonderful volunteers. Volunteers can help out in many ways, from shelving books to shoveling snow.
Host an Event. Do you have a special skill or interest? You can host an event to share your “superskill” with our community.
Get Involved in Local Politics. Sometimes, no matter how much you use and support your library, it still feels like it’s not enough. But you don’t have to run for political office to have your say in politics. Voting in local elections certainly helps, but if you want to get involved year-round, consider becoming a Library Board member.
Donate. We are counting on your contribution to help the library continue to provide the services and programs that our community relies on. Thank you to the Village of Sinclairville and Towns of Charlotte and Gerry for your ongoing support. Please join us in keeping this library an important part of serving these communities
Ask Questions, There’s one small way you can support your library: ask questions. Libraries must constantly prove their value to receive funding, and one of the ways they do that is by recording the number of questions they are asked by patrons.
