Why LSN exists
Public library fundraising needs dedicated support.
Public libraries are essential to strong communities, but the people raising private support for them often work without field-specific tools, useful examples, relevant data, or trusted peers.
You should not have to build this work alone.
LSN is for you if you help raise money for a public library.
LSN supports people working across the public library fundraising ecosystem, including:
Whether your organization is large, small, urban, rural, new, or established, LSN helps you find support that fits your work.
What makes LSN different
Peer-led, field-specific, and built for public library fundraising.
LSN is shaped by people doing the work. Our tools, conversations, and learning opportunities focus on what is practical, useful, and relevant across library size, structure, and stage of development.
Together, we help solve today’s fundraising challenges while building stronger fundraising infrastructure for public libraries over time.
