The Meridian Library District is commemorating its 100th year in the community! In revisiting the library's history, we've discovered an unconventional resident from the 1970s – Figaro, a black & white cat, who adopted the library in September 1976 and lived there for approximately four years. The Meridian History Center has diligently unraveled the mysteries surrounding Figaro, enabling us to reintroduce Figaro to the library, not just in memory. In honor of the centennial, the Foundation has created an exclusive Figaro Adoption Kit as a thank-you to our donors. 

We are officially announcing our commitment to funding $50,000 toward the Meridian Library’s Children’s Collection for 7 types of youth books over the next ten months. 

Every dollar raised through this campaign goes directly towards purchasing new youth books, ensuring that our young readers continue to have access to a diverse and enriching collection. Your contribution will help us continue our mission of enriching young minds and fostering a lifelong love of reading. 

The Boise Hawks are generously donation $4 from every ticket sale made through our unique ticketing link. Join us behind Home Plate on Thursday, June 20th (noise Hawks vs Idaho Falls Chukars). All proceeds from this fundraiser will go towards purchasing new children's books for the Meridian Library District!

Save the date for our Foundation Night on June 20th! Purchase your reserved Home Plate tickets today!

As the Meridian Library Foundation grows, we are constantly reevaluating how to be more transparent, create more security, and improve the time we receive gifts and thank our donors.
