Community Funding Leverage the recent multi-million dollar funding and private donations momentum for the Central Library Renovation to position value-added partnerships, sponsorship opportunities, and co-branded programs with local businesses and sponsors.

Renovation Opportunity Target vendors and contractors who can support remodeling needs (HVAC, acoustics, child-friendly spaces) and offer tiered sponsorships or equipment grants tied to the remodeling project.

Programs & Partnerships capitalize on ongoing collaborations with WWU sustainability initiatives, Center for Community Learning, and local cultural institutions to propose joint programs, grant-aligned initiatives, and cross-promotional community events.

Public Access & Tech Position digital modernization and security services (recaptcha, bot management, web performance) as value-adds to enhance patron experience and data integrity, opening doors for technology vendors and managed services partnerships.

Community Engagement Explore sponsorships or memberships tied to family and youth programs (Storytime, children and teens spaces) with local retailers, malls, and education-focused organizations to expand reach and drive community-led fundraising.
