Join Us for Our First Ever

Book Swap & Beers!

Join us for a pint night book swap. Bring the books you’ve already read, or been meaning to give away, and swap them for a new, exciting read!
We’ll have best sellers on the swap table, and best of all, $1 of every drink sold goes to the Library Foundation.

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSOR: Rachel Court, Real Estate Professional with Coldwell Banker the Brokers.
Special Thanks to the Friends of the Billings Public Library for book donations!

Celebrating a Major Milestone

Thanks to everyone who was able to join us for our loan burning party! This year the Foundation fulfilled it’s promise to contribute $5 million to the new Library building.

This was a major milestone for us, and we’re so grateful we got to celebrate with board members past and present who helped make this possible!

Giving Tuesday is Almost Here!

We’re so excited to kick off our end of year giving with Giving Tuesday on November 30th! This year we’re again raising money to purchase mobile hotspots for the Library’s collection. The 20 hotspots we purchased last year have been wildly popular, and the wait list is weeks long!

We want to make sure that everyone in Billings has access to online resources — your investment in our Giving Tuesday campaign will give the gift of connection!

Stay Tuned for our Giving Tuesday emails!

Take Advantage of the Montana Tax Credit

The Montana Tax Credit program offers a 40% credit of a planned gift’s federal charitable deduction, up to $10,000, per year, per individual.

We are knowledgeable about the paperwork and process of this tax credit and would be happy to discuss it with you as you consider your end of year giving!
