Help support Austin ISD’s Libraries! Our libraries are the hearts of our schools and with increasingly thin budgets, librarians are working hard to keep them beating. Library budgets vary widely across the district: some schools are well-funded, while others receive $0. Help us enable all Austin ISD libraries to buy new books and ebooks while also providing author visits, special programming, book giveaways, and Makerspace and STEM initiatives. Additionally, we need your help to update library furniture and physical spaces, and to attend conferences and professional training. Show your support with a donation!
You may send your donation to a specific school library by including the campus name in the “notes” section of your donation. Without a campus name indicated in the “notes” section, your donation will go first to the fund for all libraries and then will be distributed to campuses based on a mini-grant application process
For the Summitt Elementary library, in honor of the teaching career of Jennifer Watts, with congratulations on her retirement!
In memory of my mother Margaret Rose Clements Anderson for Mother’s Day. She loved reading and teaching children how to read.
Thank you to the Brentwood Elementary Librarians who do so much for our school and community!
For the best librarian ever, Sarah Ruttan!!
Exploring through the orderly & well-curated stacks of a school library is one of my most foundational experiences. Let’s continue to build nutrient rich intellectual environments for our children!
