- As an “independent library” the Lewes Public Library must raise nearly half of its annual operating funds EACH YEAR. We receive only partial funding from Sussex County and the State of Delaware.
- Your support makes possible the many free in-person and virtual classes, programs, and services you enjoy, and helps us with operating expenses such as heating, cooling, lighting, water, cleaning, and maintenance.
- We serve all with never a fee for services, classes or programs we provide. Find out more about our services.
- Every dollar we receive enables us to achieve our vision to be a welcoming and exemplary library for our community.
