Ways to Give

The Southington Public Library and Barnes Museum is a town department and receives the majority of its operating funding from the Town of Southington.

Additional support from the Friends of the Library and generous donors like you allows the library to provide an up-to-date collection of materials to borrow, fun and educational programs for people of all ages, and a warm and welcoming building where community members can study, read, and learn.

The Library has two funds managed by the Community Foundation of Greater New Britain to support library services:

Capital Needs Fund

Contributions to the Capital Needs Fund support the physical needs of the Library, including technology, furnishings, fixtures, and equipment to make the Library a comfortable and accessible space for all.
