Building pathways to knowledge across every neighborhood.
The Chattanooga Public Library Foundation works to ensure that every person in our community has access to the resources, spaces, and programs that transform lives through reading and learning.
Meet the Library Foundation
While the Library provides essential public services, the Foundation helps fund the programs, partnerships, and special opportunities that take those services further — the work that turns a good library into a great one.
We partner with donors, volunteers, and organizations to expand access to educational programs, collections, and opportunities across Chattanooga. From the Downtown Library to the Avondale branch, from the airport to a downtown hotel lobby, we help the Library show up wherever the community needs it.
