Monterey Learns! - The Fundraising Campaign for Monterey Public Library

The coronavirus pandemic's impact on tourism and the local economy drastically reduced the City Monterey's revenue and, as a result, the City found it necessary to make severe cuts to the Library's budget.

In response, the Monterey Public Library Friends & Foundation publicly launched the year-long Monterey Learns! fundraising campaign in February 2021. Please consider making a donation and help the library buy more books, make sure kids and teens have the tools they need to become strong readers, present meaningful programs for all ages, and ensure that the library's historical archive is accessible.
