How dues work

Flexible dues based on value and ability to pay

LSN uses a flexible dues model designed to reflect both value and ability to pay. Suggested dues levels are based on an organization’s annual contributed revenue, but organizations are invited to choose the level that makes sense for their situation.

Access and investment work together

Community Access keeps people connected. Member Organization dues help sustain the programs, tools, and field-building infrastructure the public library fundraising field needs.
