Library News:
We all are glad to see the end of 2020! The coming year promises to bring a return to some kind of "normal" as soon as vaccines are available to all. We look forward to again browsing our library shelves.
In the meantime the library is only open for curbside services. It offers many online services, from programs for children to e-books, audio books, music and movies. The Goleta Valley Library website provides the latest information on available services: www.cityofgoleta.org/city-hall/goleta-valley-library
The Friends' donations allowed the library to keep and increase these programs and services. We also funded a sizable increase to the book budget, the BrainFuse tutoring program for students of all ages, supplies and prizes for reading programs for children and adults, and more. Thanks to your generosity and strong involvement in education, we will continue to do so in 2021.

Become a Friend, renew your membership for 2021,
give a membership in a friend's name or as a memorial.

Please consider adding to your yearly donation in support of the library collections and programs
so it can better serve our community in these troubled times.

Who are The Friends?

    The Friends of the Goleta Valley Library is a non-profit 501(c)(3), volunteer organization. We raise funds through membership dues, donations, a permanent book sale in the lobby of the library, and special events such as the yearly Signed and Rare Books Silent Auction.

What will we fund in 2021?

  • All Children's programs: performances, activity kits for families, online performances, new books for the collection.
  • We'll increase the budget for the library's online platforms such as Libby, Hoopla, and more. Their costs are based on demand, which has considerably increased because of the pandemic confinement.
  • We'll supplement the book and materials budget to compensate for the temporary ban on transferring books from one library to another.
  • and more, according to our librarians' needs.

Thank you for your generosity!
