The library happily receives donations in a variety of forms and therefore uses them in a variety of ways. If you have gently used books, movies, music CDs, audio books or magazines that you no longer have use for, we can use them! Most will go into our book sales, but sometimes we find items among our donations that make wonderful additions to the library collection. Donating materials to the library is a terrific way to recycle.

Of course, we’re always thrilled to receive monetary donations as well. These range from folks dropping their spare change into our “One for Books” bucket at the checkout desk (it adds up!) to donations in celebration or memory of a loved one, to an annual gift to the library or the library’s Foundation. No matter the size or the frequency, we are always grateful to our patrons for their generosity.

You can even raise funds for the library just by using your computer to search for information or do your shopping. The Friends of the Caestecker Public Library has been accepted on GoodSearch.com and its sister web site GoodShop.com. If you visit either site you will be asked which charity you wish to support. We'd like to ask you to consider us. Then, start searching or shopping from that site and a small amount is donated to the library for every search or purchase you make. Nothing extra is added to your bill, the donated money comes from advertisers.

Donations made to the library, whether cash or in kind, are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
