........... "I appreciate being able to reserve books on-line and pick up items at my local branch. The delivery service is the best! Our libraries are part of what makes our community home." - Krista The Public Libraries in Jefferson County are announcing plans for this year’s online fundraising campaign, “The Great Give.” It will take place Tues., May 17 - Wed., May 18 and will help further the significant work of the 40 municipal libraries in the Jefferson County area. Jefferson County residents are encouraged to post a “selfie” with their favorite book or their library card when they donate to the campaign, along with a caption explaining why they are a “fan” of their local library. To promote the campaign on social media sites, the 40 Public Libraries in Jefferson County will be utilizing a hashtag- #TheGreatGive. Those that use the campaign hashtag will be entered into a drawing for an e-reader. The Jefferson County Library Cooperative works behind-the-scenes to coordinate the services that link 40 libraries with “one card” for everyone in the county. The Great Give fundraising campaign will assist the library cooperative as it works to continue linking our 40 libraries with Jefferson County residents. Those interested in donating to The Great Give May 17 and 18 will be able to do so by logging onto http://www.razoo.com/story/The-Great-Give-2016, by mailing in a donation to: Jefferson County Library Cooperative, 2100 Park Place, Birmingham, AL 35203, or by dropping off a donation at any local library.
