Honour with Books

This program offers a unique and distinctive way to pay tribute to someone you love — like a family member, colleague or friend — on the occasion of a birthday, anniversary or wedding, or as a memorial.

You may purchase the book and deliver it to any branch of Kingston Frontenac Public Library, or you may make a donation of funds to cover the purchase of the book.

We will send you a tax receipt for any donation over $10. We will also send the recipient that you designate a card to announce your gift. When the book arrives at KFPL, we will acknowledge your gift on a personalized bookplate inside the book's cover.

To make a donation, please download and fill out a Donation Form and bring it to your nearest Kingston Frontenac Public Library branch.
