Amazon Smile
Did you know by using Amazon Smile...
...0.5% OF THE NET PURCHASE PRICE FROM ELIGIBLE AMAZONSMILE PURCHASES TO BURBAGE COMMUNITY LIBRARY... AND IT COSTS YOU NOTHING!
All you have to do is next time you shop at Amazon, type in the URL smile.amazon.co.uk and then ‘Login’ to your Amazon Account and follow the on screen prompts …
In the ‘Or pick your own Charitable Organisation’ search box type Burbage Community Library (not case sensitive) and again follow the onscreen prompts.
If you use the URL smile.amazon.co.uk every time you shop at Amazon they will donate 0.5% of the net purchase price from eligible AmazonSmile purchases to Burbage Community Library, so it’s a good idea to ‘Bookmark’ this. …
Whilst 0.5% may not seem a lot, as a charitable organisation, ‘every penny counts’ and periodically Amazon improve this … for example they recently increased it to 5% for a short period of time.
Burbage Community Library Management Committee would like to THANK YOU for taking the time to read this and hope you can help us benefit from Amazon’s donations …
Donations Wanted
As a Registered Charity we rely totally on our Volunteers, donations and fundraising events to keep the Library open for the Community of Burbage…
We are currently looking for the following:
Books - both adults and children's
Talking Books
Local History literature
Books - New Arrivals
Please note: Due to the high demand of new arrivals the book you would like may already have been loaned, but don’t be too disheartened as you can reserve any book.
