The Nashville Public Library Foundation has raised more than $68 million to expand Nashville Public Library’s community impact, which includes providing a vast collection of diverse resources and delivering award-winning programming on a massive scale, free of charge.
Join Nashville Public Library Foundation in celebrating Banned Books Week October 1-7. Make a gift in support of intellectual freedom and help build NPL’s collection.
Join a committed community of leaders, learners and achievers in helping us reach our goal.
Literacy changes lives. Through NPL's expansive collection and award-winning programming, children can develop strong foundations, build literacy skills, and expand their imaginations.
All people deserve the resources and tools to live informed, choice-filled lives. NPL programming helps patrons learn critical skills, receive support, and reach their goals.
Nashville Public library thrives as a vibrant and dynamic center with open and equal access - a place where civic discourse is strengthened, human connections are formed, and all are welcome.
In the library of the 21st century, books are only half the story. Today’s community library is an agile information hub for personal empowerment, continuously adapting to meet the needs of its patrons and the rapidly changing circumstances of our society. Government funding pays for staff, books, and buildings, but the programs that make Nashville Public Library a community jewel require more support than is available in public funds. The Nashville Public Library Foundation provides that bridge.
There are so many ways to show your support for NPL. By supporting the Foundation, you are joining a committed community of leaders, learners and achievers dedicated to supporting and empowering one of our city’s greatest resources – Nashville Public Library.
On Giving Tuesday, your gift to NPLF will be matched by Boyle Investment Co.
