On behalf of the leadership and entire staff of the Birmingham Public Library, I want to thank you for participating in #GivingTuesdayNow, a special worldwide day dedicated to giving back held on May 5, 2020. This event was created to assist organizations that have helped communities deal with the coronavirus pandemic.

The Birmingham Public Library is grateful for all of the support past and present. Whether you participated by donating on #GivingTuesdayNow or always have donated to BPL...we say thank you! Your continued efforts will help BPL with virtual programming so that those at home can enjoy all the library has to offer.

We will open our doors soon and cannot wait to see you. Please help us move forward with our virtual services to so that patrons can continue accessing our services and programming online.

Supporting our libraries helps BPL continue to provide free educational programs 24/7 for those in need.
