Volunteer

You can support the Alachua County Library District in many ways, including volunteering at a library or with Friends of the Library and the Alachua County Library District Foundation.

Give a Gift

Your personal gift or organization’s gift to the library in memory of a friend or loved one provides a lasting tribute which benefits the entire community. Celebrate happy times such as the birthday of a child or special friend with a gift to the library in their name. Each book will contain a gift plate with your name as donor and the name of the person honored. You may earmark the funds for materials in your particular area of interest.

You may also mail your check with a gift form, available at all service desks, to:
