Did You Know?
Monetary donations to the library are tax deductible! Library materials purchased with your donations are a great way to commemorate a special event, such as the birth of a child, a wedding, or an anniversary. We put a plaquet in every book with the name of the person honored, and the name of the person who made the donation. It's a great way to celebrate a first library card too!
Remembrance Tree
On the brick wall at the library a ‘Remembrance Tree’ recognizes contributions of $100 or more to the Center Line Library. A leaf on the tree is filled in with the donor’s name or the name of a loved one in whose memory the gift is being made.
The tree was donated in memory of Theresa Pegan by her children.
If you would like to make a donation, contact the library at 586-758-8274 for more information.
