This is not for capital campaign funds but just general gifts to the library, especially monetary gifts over $1,000. Do you have a plaque you add names to or do you just send a thank you note and that is it? We have shelving and furniture in the library that we can put small plaques on with people’s names but we will be receiving a larger donation and wanted to research what is popular in other libraries for commemorating this type of donation. One suggestion was made of a wall plaque similar to what hospitals have with donors names added over time. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thank you,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Esther Moberg<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Director, Seaside Public Library<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Seaside, Oregon<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:emoberg@cityofseaside.us">emoberg@cityofseaside.us</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>503-738-6742<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.seasidelibrary.org">www.seasidelibrary.org</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.facebook.com/seasidepubliclibrary">www.facebook.com/seasidepubliclibrary</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
