We Fund
Public libraries are community hubs for information, technology, cultural exploration, and community connection. The Library Foundation funds a variety of literacy projects, building improvements, and librarian-led innovations. Currently, we provide grant funding for a new Story Room at Central and refurbishments of the children’s area at all Berkeley Public Library branches. A couple of our most recent funding went to the ongoing Berkeley Builds Readers and a new literacy project called, Conscious Kits, which is designed to introduce young readers to diverse subject matters and content and promote critical thinking through discussion questions.
