There are many ways to help and support your Library!

Libraries exist to serve, but they also need your support.  Volunteers can help at events or with daily library tasks. Donations help build our collection and fund the library through books sales.  Financial support to provide expanded services is also needed and appreciated.

Make a Donation
Material Donations (books, DVDs, games, etc.): Donations of materials are accepted during open hours with the understanding that they may or may not be added to the collection, sold, or discarded. The library does not provide evaluation of gifts for tax deduction or other purposes but will provide a receipt if desired. Containers (boxes/bags) that donations are brought in are not able to be emptied immediately, they should considered the containers part of the donation.

Items are sold by the Friends of the Pembroke Public Library to support their mission.
