Library Champions contribute annually to ALA’s Libraries Transform Campaign, a nationwide strategic communications effort about the value and benefits of libraries.  Contributions support ALA's efforts to provide free public awareness materials and resources directly to libraries plus support the Association's national initiatives such as National Library Week and Library Card Sign Up Month.  These special initiatives have been designed to increase public awareness of the importance of libraries as great democratic institutions, serving people of every age, income level, location, ethnicity, or physical ability.

ALA would like to thank the following companies and foundations for their generous ongoing support.
