There are many ways community members can support the Clinton Public Library; through the Friends, monetary or material donations, sponsoring a big program/event like Summer Reading, or volunteering.  

If you’re an author, an artist, business owner, etc. and have a program for the library to host, please call the library to discuss the possibility of putting one together.

The Clinton Public Library is grateful for gifts, and its collection has been enriched by donations of materials as well as contributions. Through donors, the library has been able to acquire materials which could not have been purchased otherwise. The library staff can supply, upon request, a list of needed materials for consideration by the donor. Please see the Gifts to the Library Policy for more information and a donation form.
