Program areas at Salem Public Library Foundation
Each year SPLF funds Salem Reads, a community reads program, which encourages everyone to read the same book and participate in a month of programming around the themes of the book. Our goal is to encourage reading and awareness of the Library to our diverse community. We offer Sprinkles Grants to Library staff to try new and innovative projects that make their jobs and or patron experience better. We encourage untested, creative, and unusual projects. We also fund staff training and appreciation, books for new babies born at Salem Hospital, library card lanyards for all 1st graders, book club kits, and new computers and technology to help bridge the digital divide for patrons.
