Thank you for making the Association for Rural & Small Libraries part of your holiday giving! 

ARSL Holiday Giving Form

Make a donation in a colleague or loved one’s name, or give the gift of an annual membership to your favorite library lover! This is a meaningful gift for managers to give their staff, directors to give their trustees, and mentors to give their protégés.  

Membership in the ARSL provides library workers and advocates with a genuine opportunity to broaden their professional experience and connect with others who are passionate about libraries and the communities we serve. Member benefits include:

  • Access to the ARSL member e-list
  • Member-only professional development round tables
  • Reduced registration costs for the annual ARSL conference and TRAIN workshops
  • Opportunities to serve on national committees and in leadership positions

Once you’ve made your donation or purchased your gift memberships, we’ll send you a downloadable gift certificate you can send to the recipient. The ARSL office will send membership recipients and donation honorees formal notification of their respective gifts on or after Wednesday, December 27 (to avoid ruining any holiday surprises), unless you have asked us to notify them sooner. Membership recipients will also be given any necessary instructions for completing their account at that time.

The Association for Rural and Small Libraries is a registered 501(c)(3) organization. Donations made to ARSL may be claimed as charitable donations for federal income tax purposes.
