Support the Library

The Calgary Public Library Foundation supports the Library through fundraising.

We connect people and organizations who want to make a difference with the opportunity to improve our shared community. All donations cultivate innovation and bring the Library to those who need it most.

Since 2011, the Library Foundation has raised more than $60 million in support of the Calgary Public Library. Our 21,500 donors are helping to build a stronger Calgary.

Stronger Together

The Resiliency Fund, launched in response to COVID-19, provides support for the challenges that lie ahead for our community and serves the evolving needs of Calgarians as we cope with the effects of the global pandemic. For more information on how you can support the Calgary Public Library, please visit the Library Foundation’s Resiliency Fund page.

Book Donations

Calgary Public Library does not accept physical book donations, with the exception of books by local authors or about the history of southern Alberta. We encourage you to support a number of other organizations locally that accept book donations.
