How Can You Support Your Library Monetary and Memoriam Donations The Blind River Public Library is registered with Revenue Canada as a Charity. A Charitable Tax Receipt will be issued for monetary and memoriam donations of $10.00 or more. In the case of memoriam donations a book plate will be put in a book in your loved one’s name. Used Materials Donations of gently used, clean and current books, magazines, audio books, CDs, DVDs and videos are welcomed. We can also accept items of local interest and local yearbooks. Items we accept as donations will be added to the collection or sold and the proceeds used to purchase new materials or recycled. Ask the staff for full details. Volunteer Opportunities Secondary students aged 14 and up can apply to do all or some of their community service hours at the Library. Adults are also welcomed. Ask the staff for full details. Some areas with Volunteer Opportunities are:   A Giant Book Sale is held each summer. Volunteers are needed to sort, set-up, sell books and dismantle the event. The Local History collection needs detail oriented, organized volunteers to work in the comfort of the Library recording the names of people, places, events and items of interest named in locally produced materials.
