Release Date: June 04, 2008
The new Greenburgh Library will open in October, 2008. If you would like to have a room, collection section at the library named in your honor – that can be arranged--, if you make a major donation to the Library. The Greenburgh Library Board approved the following fundraising opportunities at a Board meeting. If you are interested in having a room, collection section named for you or a family member – please contact townboard@greenburghny.com. Genie Contrata is the Library director. We will forward all significant donation opportunities to Genie and the Library Board. If you are interested in making a donation and would like a pre-opening day tour of the library to see where your donation will go – a personalized tour can be arranged.
The Town Board is also interested in discussing, with possible large funders, naming the entire building for a significant financial donor.
