Donate
Monetary Donations
- Request the materials be adult and/or children
- Request the materials be on a subject area broad enough to maintain the balance of the collection.

- Request the Library send an acknowledgement of the gift to a given name and address.
Niles District Library Endowment Fund
Designate The Library For Memorial Contributions
For memorials exceeding $150, a Christmas ornament with the deceased’s name will be displayed on a special tree at the Library during the holiday season.
Establishing a memorial is easy. While we are happy to help, you don’t need to contact the Library. Simply let your family and friends know of your wishes. Most people include a suggestion for donations to the Library in the obituary. Make checks payable to Niles District Library and complete a Gift and Donations Form.
Friends of Niles District Library & Niles History Center
As a tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) organization, The Friends raise funds to support the shared goals of Niles District Library and Niles History Center. Membership dues make up a significant portion of the Friends proceeds each year.
A basic membership of $15 annually provides access to exclusive events for Friends during the year. The Friends also accept cash donations.
Want to become a Friend? Stop by NDL or the Niles History Center gift shop to fill out an application.
Book Sales
Friends of the Niles District Library no longer have set book sale dates and times. The Friends currently have a book sale cart located next to the Checkout Desk. All proceeds from the book cart sales go back to the Friends.
