Williamsburg Regional Library
Giving Opportunities
(back to how to help)
Williamsburg Regional Library system consists of the James City County Library and the Williamsburg Library.
James City County Library Williamsburg Library
The Williamsburg Regional Library receives funds toward the costs of operating from James City County and the City of Williamsburg, based on circulation by residency. The library also receives funds from York County. However, support from private donors helps the library offer resources and programs to the greater Williamsburg community that otherwise would not be possible. Because of this combination of public and private support, the Williamsburg Regional Library system remains one of the busiest and best in Virginia. The following list of gift opportunities are available for your support. The list is divided into giving at the $10,000 level and above and opportunities under $10,000. Opportunities that are specific to a particular library facility are indicated by the JCCL (James City County Library) and WL (Williamsburg Library) designations on the left margin. Thank you for your support.
Benjamin Goldberg, Director of Development, will be happy to discuss all giving opportunities with you. We also welcome your on-line contribution or your pledge. Visit our major donor's lifetime giving page to see how private donations help make a great library even better.
