Funding Lifelong Learning in New Mexico Since 1992

Welcome!

The New Mexico Library Foundation empowers libraries across the state by funding collection development, professional growth opportunities, and vibrant community programs—from literacy and arts to STEM, culture, and beyond. Thanks to NMLF support, libraries of all kinds—public, tribal, school, academic, professional, and special—have been able to expand their services and enrich the communities they serve.
