The Talbot County Free Library (TCFL) will soon wrap up their Bricks for Books campaign—a fundraising initiative to support the expanded collection at the renovated St. Michaels Branch. The campaign invites residents and local businesses to purchase personalized, commemorative bricks that will be installed in the library’s new outdoor walkway.
Each brick can be engraved with a name, logo, quote, or message, creating a lasting tribute for future generations of readers. Proceeds will help fund new books and materials for the St. Michaels Branch collection.
“The St. Michaels Library is one of the county’s most beloved destinations,” said Amanda David, President of the Talbot County Free Library Foundation. “The gift of one brick funds an average of three to four books for the library and allows our patrons to honor someone special to them.”
Bricks are available for purchase now through the library’s website. A dedication ceremony will be held when the St. Michaels Branch reopens in early 2026. The deadline to order is September 26, 2025.
For more information or to purchase a brick, visit www.tcfl.org or call (410) 822-1626.
