Library's Greatest Need

This year your gift to the Library’s Greatest Need Fund will be used to enhance our library's collection of books and provide support for innovative library programming – incredibly valuable services and resources our community relies on.

Demand for library services and programs remains at an all-time high. Last year, Frederick County Public Libraries welcomed over 2.6 million visitors and circulated 4.4 million items – up 15% from last year.

To continue offering exceptional services that support our community, we need your help. The library’s budget does not meet the tremendous demand for books and materials.

Your donation to the Library’s Greatest Need Fund will directly benefit:

  • Expanding Our Collection: With your support, we can add new and diverse books, ensuring that our collection remains relevant and inspiring. From popular bestsellers to beloved classics and everything in between, your donation will help us keep pace with increasing demand and provide the best possible collection of materials for our community to enjoy.
  • Enhancing Programming: Last year, the library hosted 259,000 programs at our nine branches. With your support, we can expand our range of innovative library programs and reach new and previously underserved communities. From educational workshops to community events, your support will help us meet the evolving interests and needs of our community.

Your donation, no matter the size, will make a significant difference.

Through the collective effort of dedicated supporters, people like you, we can continue to provide the high-quality resources and programs that our community deserves.
