Give the gift of reading this holiday season!

As you start writing out your holiday shopping list, why not give the gift of reading? Your Toledo-Lucas County Public Library needs your help now more than ever! Every gift, large or small, is important to us. The Library has launched the Bucks-for-Books campaign and by donating, you can help close the gap between reduced state and local funding and increased need for Library resources. Please buy one book, two books or even a shelf of books and help your Library. more>>
