NYPL is a top-rated charity
As the third-largest library system in the world, our mission is to inspire lifelong learning, advance knowledge, and strengthen our communities.
Demand for books and digital offerings has increased dramatically over the past year. Millions of New Yorkers, especially children and underserved communities, are counting on us to keep our branches stocked with books and e-books that will help them learn, grow, and thrive. It costs approximately $20 to add a new book to our circulating collections. As a special thank you, you'll receive a custom bookplate sticker! Every dollar you donate by October 29 will go twice as far.
