Downtown Library
Anchorage Public Library (APL) and the Anchorage Library Foundation (ALF) are working to re-establish a downtown library made possible by a generous bequest from Janet and John Goetz.
Join us Saturday, April 11 from 6 - 10 PM at the Anchorage Marriott Hotel for a silent auction, dinner, guest author presentation and live auction.
By attending Beyond the Stacks, you will help school-age children across the city keep reading throughout the summer to maintain their literacy skills. Plus, with so many exciting auction items, you could walk away with a unique treasure AND benefit the Library you love!
Thanks to generous community members like you, Beyond the Stacks has raised over $800,000 in the last 19 years for books, media and programs.
