Make Your Tax-Deductible Gift by December 31

You know how deeply essential the Library is to New York. Every day, New Yorkers come from all corners of the city to check out books, conduct world-class research, learn English as a second language, power their job search, get afterschool homework help, and more.

As this city grows, so do the needs of the community. This year we're aiming to beat last year's goal — not only because we think you're up for the challenge, but because we have to. In 2015, we anticipate that our books and programs will be even more in demand and unfortunately, the government only pays for a portion of these crucial services. That’s why we urgently need your help to raise $500,000 before the year ends.

Make your tax-deductible gift before midnight on December 31 to guarantee all New Yorkers another year full of programs and services and books — all for free — at the Library.
