In Honor of...
Commemorative Naming Opportunities
 
Your library has made major strides this year in its effort to improve library services and facilities to its patrons. To acknowledge exceptional contributions from the community that support these efforts, the library is offering commemorative naming opportunities. Recognize a special event or honor a loved one, an outstanding organization, or esteemed group as we continue to create an inviting environment for reading, study, and discovery.

With a financial donation to the Fox River Valley Public Library District (known as the Dundee Township Public Library District until June 30), your honoree will be acknowledged by the installation of a plaque or inscription on or near a furnishing, piece of equipment, or area within the Dundee Library or Randall Oaks Branch Library.

For more information, click here or email Kirstin Finneran, PR & Marketing at kfinneran@dundeelibrary.info.
