Love Your Library – Oakmont Carnegie Library

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

This September, during Love Your Library month, we invite you to celebrate a remarkable milestone with us—125 years of the Oakmont Carnegie Library (OCL) serving our community.

OCL has been a place where generations have discovered new ideas, found lifelong passions, and built meaningful connections. Today, children attend story time, students access technology and learning resources, families gather for programs, and neighbors come together in a welcoming space. As we honor our past, we are also investing in the future of this treasured community resource.

Thanks to the Jack Buncher Foundation, every gift made to the Oakmont Carnegie Library between September 1 and September 30 will receive a partial match*, allowing your generosity to have an even greater impact. Your support helps preserve our historic library while expanding collections, enhancing programs, and so much more.

Please consider making a gift today. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps write the next chapter in the Oakmont Carnegie Library’s story. Thank you for celebrating 125 years with us and for loving your library today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.

With grateful appreciation,

Your Oakmont Carnegie Library Board of Directors
