We say it every year around this time, but it's always true: we're so thankful for you! As we look back on all that was accomplished in 2021 through your generous support, we are grateful.

 

As a donor, you are a vital and valued member of the Library family and your generosity has a profound impact on the patrons they serve. Kitsap Regional Library invited the public back into its buildings in April of 2021, giving a warm 'Welcome back!' to the community. Throughout the year, the Library served 324,883 patrons inside and an additional 45,907 patrons curbside. The amazing library staff engaged 12,877 viewers with more than 1,500 live and recorded virtual programs, and cardholders borrowed 2,328,629 physical and digital items.

​

Through your support, you create opportunities for our youth to excel in reading, ensuring they develop a life-long love of learning. You empower our teens to explore new ideas and learn first-hand about topics they find interesting, topics that can lead to future educational and workforce opportunities. And you help us engage in conversations that lead to better understanding, compassion, and often new friendships.

​

Thank you for investing in our community, helping each of us to dream more, learn more, do more and be more.
