Dreams really can come true at your library
Wake up the sleeping support for your library. Don't wait until someone suggest closing a branch before you tap into that support. Fundraising is easy with DearReader's Library WishList.
“The response has been staggering. BPL supporters have been donating ever since we unveiled the WishList, from $10 to as much as $1000. We have fulfilled more than 3/4 of our wishes in a few short weeks.”
Hunter Murphy, Development Assistant, Birmingham Public Library

Making it easy for people to support your library
Whatever you need for your library, post it on your WishList. If you need a hearing loop system for your meeting room, enter a description and explain why it’s needed. Include a photograph, and the estimated cost. Immediately your patrons can start making contributions at your website, or on Facebook. They can also see how many people have contributed, the total amount, and what is needed to complete the wish.
Integrated Online Payment
Patrons can make contributions online using their credit card, debit card or PayPal account. It’s easy to get a payment account, and we’ll help you get started.
