Carrying Forward the Legacy of Andrew Carnegie

Libraries for the Future has been privileged to work with funders who share Andrew Carnegie’s vision of a nation whose cultural riches are available to all. Thanks to their work, libraries remain agents of democracy and hope in our communities.

In some cases, LFF serves as a conduit of funds from foundations to libraries. In others, LFF provides professional development services, technical support, research, and network of colleagues that keep libraries at the leading-edge of community service. LFF works with private, national, local, and community foundations, and believes that a public-private partnership is the key to library success for the future, as it was in Carnegie’s day.

We thank the following funders for their support and partnership.
