Donations to the Library

Guidelines for Donation Types

Library Materials

The library is currently not accepting book or other physical media donations due to pandemic restrictions.

Monetary

The library welcomes monetary donations in any amount. Your donation may be designated for specific purchases, such as a specific service, title of a book, books for a specific subject area, or titles for a particular library branch. We will be happy to work with you in an effort to accommodate your request. If your donation is not designated, it will be used to support the collection and mission of the library. Please make checks out to FRIENDS OF THE OXNARD PUBLIC LIBRARY and mail to 251 S. A St., Oxnard, CA 93030 OR click to donate online.
