How We Are Growing - Funding
Placitas Community Library Funding - Operational expenses come from your donations! Thank you!
County General Obligation Bond - This is a voter-approved bond that is requested every four years. Please consider supporting us by voting yes.
NM State General Obligation Bond - This is a Statewide request to voters in support of libraries.
Grants from the American Library Association in conjunction with the National Endowment for the Humanities - We the People Foundation Bookshelf - a program that encourages young people to read classic books and explore themes in American history, culture, and ideas. This year's theme is "Pursuit of Happiness."
Donations of Time - The Library staff and Board are all volunteers. All operating expenses are funded by very generous community donations. The fund raising efforts that lead to these donations are raised through the efforts of the Friends of the Library. The total monthly contribution of hours provided by the volunteer staff is over 1,200 hours per month – a truly generous effort by wonderful volunteers.
