Donations help Mid-Continent Public Library continue to enrich our citizens and communities through expanding access to innovation, information, ideas, and inspiration while demonstrating the value you see in this essential community resource. While MCPL is primarily funded through tax dollars, declining revenues and increased need within our communities have created new challenges for the Library. There are many ways to support the Library, from joining Library Lovers, to attending the Legacy Luncheon, to purchasing the Library’s special blend from The Roasterie.
