Love Your Library” Fundraiser
On Friday, December 2nd and Saturday, December 3rd, Barnes & Noble will donate 15 to 25% of every sale at Connecticut and select out-of-state store locations to Connecticut’s libraries!
To qualify, purchases must be accompanied by a Love Your Library voucher (see ICONN.org). The funds will be used to help underwrite the purchase of additional iCONN databases, thus benefiting patrons of all of Connecticut’s public, school, and academic libraries.
Love Your Library also provides additional opportunities for libraries and friends groups to develop relationships with local Barnes & Noble stores, to conduct in-store events, establish library “wish lists”, and more.
