JCLF donates to library programs

Posted Monday, March 17, 2014 4:58 pm

Jefferson County Library Foundation (JCLF) announced today that it will donate $170,000 in 2014 to support library programs including the Summer Reading Club, the Traveling Children’s Library and Early Literacy Playscapes and Programming. Funding will also go toward digital formats such as computers and laptops for teen areas, Early Literacy Stations with educational software, mini iPads for the eTrain mobile computer training lab and more computer tables available for checkout. JCFL will support the Library’s Culture Pass program, which offers free passes to local cultural attractions; Jeffco Stories, a program designed to capture and archive oral histories from Jefferson County residents; and Book Club Kits to promote a culture of reading in the community.

To donate to the Foundation, visit jeffcolibrary.org/donate, or mail contribution to The Jefferson County Library Foundation, 10790 W. 50th Ave., Suite 200, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033.
