Create a Legacy

Honor the special people in your life through a generous memorial or tribute  gift to the library Foundation. Donate online or download a form.

As well, remembering the Nashville Public Library when you plan your estate is a meaningful way to make a lasting contribution to the Library while taking advantage of federal and state tax laws. Your gift can reduce your income taxes including capital gains, and reduce transfer taxes including gift and estate.

By including the Foundation in your will or estate plan, you can help ensure that Nashville's libraries will always be an important resource for the community.

If you have a specific purpose in mind, please contact Tari Hughes, Executive Director at 615-880-2610.


     Gift to Wilson Limited Editions Collection

The only true equalisers in the world are books; the only treasure-house open to all comers is a library; the only wealth which will not decay is knowledge; the only jewel which you can carry beyond the grave is wisdom.
