My personal message:
Thank you for visiting this fundraising page!

The Beverly Bookmobile has served the Beverly community for more than 40 years. It makes stops at schools, nursing homes, day care centers, elderly housing residences, playgrounds, and residential neighborhoods.

But the current bookmobile is on its last legs! The library needs help in raising funds for a new one so that it can continue to bring the joy of reading to everyone in the City -- especially those who are homebound and kids in need.

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support the library's fundraising efforts.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too -- that includes former classmates from BHS, friends and family who live or work in the City and just about anyone who appreciates the joy of reading.

Some Bookmobile Facts:
*18% of all books borrowed from the Beverly Public Library come from the Bookmobile
*During 2007 nearly 60,000 items were circulated through the bookmobile -- that is more than many small-to-medium town libraries
*The Beverly bookmobile is one of just four Bookmobiles in Massachusetts -- let's keep it going!
