Galway Get Together
The “Galway Get Together” is a bi-monthly newsletter created and distributed by the Galway Public Library staff. It is a compilation of community news, events, and area business information available in printed and digital formats as well as on the Library website. Currently, library staff provide approximately 1200 digital copies and distribute 35 printed copies to area businesses per issue.
The most significant cost of producing the “Galway Get Together” is the staff hours dedicated to gathering the information and creating the online and print versions of the newsletter, approximately $3500 annually. Currently, the Galway Public Library Foundation provides full funding for these additional staff hours.
The Foundation would like to provide ever-increasing support for needs of the library, including the “Galway Get Together.” Businesses and individuals who find the newsletter valuable are encouraged to make a donation to the Galway Public Library Foundation.
Your donation to help us support the Galway Get Together may be made online or by check payable to Galway Public Library Foundation, PO Box 68, Galway NY 12074. Donations to the Foundation may also be dropped off at the Library.
Easing Taxpayer Burden
The Galway Public Library is funded by the school district tax payers. The Foundation pledges additional funding annually to reduce that tax burden.
