What Does The CommonSpark Campaign Support?
New Main Library
A tech-forward, civic destination equipped to meet evolving community needs. It will become a hub of activity and innovation for the entire Library system, and the gateway and heartbeat to a reimagined North Tryon Street corridor.
Support Services Center
To maximize public space in the new Main Library, many behind-the-scenes functions will move to an offsite service center. Mecklenburg County has provided funding for the renovation of a nearby building for this purpose.
Technology, Innovation and Programming
The CommonSpark will ignite change throughout the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library system.
Endowment for the Future
Endowment funds generate a permanent source of revenue to meet the Library's evolving future needs.
Annual Library Operating Support
Annual contributions from the Library Foundation enhance programs, services and outreach each year.
