FOL has made the first two $25,000 disbursements from the Kaff Trust to the Auburn Library. This generous trust was received by FOL July 2023 for use to enhance and expand the library's nonfiction collections for all ages. With the first disbursement the library brought in approximately 1,153 items in three waves. Before purchases were made the library did extensive reviews of nonfiction collections to set priorities. The second distribution of funds was September 17. The library staff will again review and plan for the nonfiction needs before purchases are made. The remainder of the Kaff Trust funds are in a high yield CD, for distributions to the Auburn library on an annual basis.
The Marjorie Taylor Kaff Trust is an example of a legacy gift to our community. We hope you will consider a legacy gift to our library.
