Resources For Businesses and Nonprofits
The nonprofit-focused databases we have for free with your library card, some on-site and some with remote-use options, can help you in numerous ways. For example, they include the powerful Foundation (FDO) from Canvid, Grantwatch, iProWave, and more!

“The library tremendously improved our ability to fundraise and grow our business' customer base. It also enables us to utilize machines that would otherwise be expensive to purchase, to create art and products to be sold.”
