Nationwide, many public libraries are limiting their services this year because of drastic budget cuts. However, here in Santa Clara you\u2019ll find the same services available as usual. Why is your Library different? Well, the City\u2019s conservative financial management and the continued strong funding of the Library through the Foundation and Friends are two major reasons.<\/p>\n

Whenever you\u2019ve bought a used book at our bookstore or during a Saturday Book Sale, or donated funds or mate- rials, or volunteered with the Foundation & Friends, you have helped strengthen your Library.<\/p>\n

With your help, the Santa Clara City Library Foundation & Friends was again able to fund \u201cBrainfuse Online Home- work Help,\u201d the Summer Reading programs, the Kaiser Permanente Health and Wellness Collection, and the \u201cRead Santa Clara\u201dliteracy programs\u2014all presented at levels comparable to previous years.<\/p>\n

Over $250,000 in donations were raised in the 2008\u20132009 fiscal year. In fact, during this fiscal year the number of donors who have contributed\u2014and the amount of funds raised\u2014is greater than ever before.<\/p>\n

The Foundation & Friends is fortunate to have so many people who care about the Library and help support it. We offer our sincere thanks to all of you for all that you give and for all that you do. To learn more about our organiza- tion, please visit our web site at www.lovethelibrary.org or call me at 615-2978.<\/p>\n
