Support your library!

Thanks to everyone who’s donated already! The financial assistance from you and your neighbors helps us bring the best library services to everyone in Pawling. Our Annual Appeal is off to a great start, and I just wanted to reach out and remind you that it’s not too late to donate! Last year, our patrons checked out over 60,000 books, DVD’s, audiobooks, and eBooks from our library. The attendance at our programs — which cover everything from early literacy for infants to memoir writing for adults — reached almost 16,000. To help us continue our mission and bring lifelong learning and literacy to everyone in Pawling, Holmes, and Whaley Lake, please donate online or mail this card with your contribution to the library today.
