As the holiday shopping season kicks off the day after Thanksgiving with "Black Friday," followed by its virtual counterpart, "Cyber Monday," you now have the option to spread the spirit of giving when you purchase through Alexandria Library's Buy It Now Amazon.com link. Having partnered with the online retailer, our “Buy It Now” link allows anyone to purchase any item—not just books—and a portion of the proceeds will be donated back to the Library. Be sure to bookmark www.bit.ly/ALBuyitnow to help support us through your online purchases on Cyber Monday, December 2 — or at any time — as we continue to offer the community free books, eBooks, audiobooks, DVDs, CDs and more. Feel free to share the link with friends and relatives.
After two days of shopping, you can join the nation as people devote a day to give back. Be part of the #unselfie movement on #GivingTuesday, December 3, by donating to the Alexandria Library Foundation. Your support will help provide materials and help enhance Library services. After donating, you can take a photo, tag it #unselfie and upload it to your Instagram, Twitter or Facebook from now until December 4.
