Adopt a Magazine

Do you enjoy the Library’s wide selection of magazine’s & newspapers? Do you want to ensure that your favourites are always available? Participate in the library’s Adopt a Magazine program!

“Adopt” your favourite magazine by donating the cost of its annual subscription, and share your good taste with other library users. Each “adopted” magazine will be labelled with the name of the donor. What an effective way to advertise your business, honour that “hard-to-buy-for” person on your gift list, or simply show your support! As magazine subscription prices steadily increase, the library’s buying power decreases.

Without financial assistance from library users, businesses and organizations, we will be unable to renew subscriptions to many of the magazines and newspapers which all of us have come to expect to find at the library.

For more information about the library’s Adopt-a-Magazine program, or to make a donation, please contact Shannon Bryan, Coordinator of Collections and Technical Services, at 613-968-6731 x 2049.

Ways to Donate to the Parrott Gallery

Sponsor a Painting

Our permanent collection contains a large number of works on paper that need new acid-free mats and backings. With your help, we can ensure that our collection lasts for many, many years for the enjoyment of our future patrons.

Giving to Grow

The generous donation of close to 80 paintings from the John and Bernice Parrott Foundation in 2006 was the foundation of our Manly MacDonald collection. Now known as the collecting gallery for MacDonald’s paintings, we have begun to receive private donations from across the province. With your help, we can grow the collection for the enjoyment of our visitors today and long into the future.

How can you help?

*Financial donations – to purchase and maintain additions to the collection.

*Gifts of appraised Manly MacDonald works.

*Promise for future gifts of Manly MacDonald works through estate planning.
