Support your Local Library on April 4th for Library Giving Day.

Timberland Regional Library will be participating this year in Library Giving Day - a nationwide day of fundraising to support individual library systems on April 4, 2023.

Since 2019, over 400 library organizations across the United States and Canada have participated in this annual one-day fundraising event benefitting local libraries.

The funds received on Library Giving Day will help ensure that our communities can continue to enjoy free access to modern and helpful resources and services, making a significant difference in the lives of patrons, especially during this time of rising costs and inflation.

Donations will further support TRL’s strategic direction focusing on expanding services to underserved communities, improving accessibility, supporting early learning initiatives, collaborative partnerships, and outreach.

Exciting changes from the past year include:

• Increasing branch hours by 12.7%
• Opening TRL’s 29th library in Hawks Prairie, WA
• Introducing iPads for in-library use
• Adding Expanded Access Hours to more locations, allowing patrons to use the library beyond staffed hours
• Purchasing land to build a brand-new library in Randle, WA
• Launching new library card designs including the first Native American Heritage Month TRL library card
• Opening Sundays at West Olympia Timberland Library. The floor space of this location is currently being doubled to meet the needs of the community.
• Renovating and refreshing several libraries

“For the communities we serve, there is tremendous value in supporting local libraries and library staff,” TRL Executive Director, Cheryl Heywood said. “We care deeply about the people who use and rely on our libraries. Wherever and whenever people access TRL, we want them to feel comfortable and welcome.”

Timberland Regional Library welcomes everyone to a vibrant world of possibilities; connecting people, places, and ideas; evolving to meet the needs of our communities; and access for all.
