Darien Library will celebrate its 126th Anniversary on May 27 by holding an annual giving day called “1894 Day.” The event will run from 12 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. on May 27. In honor of the Library’s 126th Anniversary, their goal is to raise $126,000 in 24-hours.
All funds raised on 1894 Day will be dedicated directly to library resources. Darien Library is a true public-private partnership between the Town of Darien, which pays for salaries and operating expenses, and the Friends of the Library, who generously fund all of the books, audiobooks, e-Books, computers, technology, research databases, and its impressive range of cultural and entertainment programs.
Donors may give online at any time on May 27 at darienlibrary.org/donate. For more information, please contact the Library’s Administrative Office at 203-669-5220.
