Novel Night
The WCDPL Foundation is honored by the huge support for Novel Night 2024. Thanks to our generous donors, preliminary numbers show that we raised over $120,000 to purchase new books for the library.
The goal of the WCDPL Foundation's Novel Night is to raise funds for library materials through ticket sales, sponsorships, and auctions. It is the generosity of sponsors and donors which make it possible for all proceeds from the Benefit to be used for the purchase of new books, audiobooks, eBooks, picture books, and large print books.
Supporting Novel Night
We hope that you will consider supporting Novel Night by becoming a sponsor. The purpose of your gift remains, as always, to purchase books and other materials that will educate, inspire, and entertain our patrons. Your generous response will help make that happen.

Here are some compelling reasons why Novel Night is so important to the library:
- More than 22,400 cardholders borrowed over 579,000 books and other items in 2023 from Bowling Green, Walbridge, and the Bookmobile, thus demonstrating that the WCDPL system remains an integral part of the communities we serve.
- Over 30,200 people attended library programs in 2023, including book clubs, storytimes, and author visits. The library is an active place dedicated to learning and discover opportunities.
