Help us support the Kodiak Public Library in providing the services and activities our community values.
A Big Book Sale Thank You
The Kodiak Public Library Association thanks our members, library staff, our many volunteers, Threshold Recycling, and everyone who bought books at our annual Crabfest book sale. It was one of our most successful sales ever.
What We Do
The Kodiak Public Library Association is a nonprofit organization that supports and advocates for the City of Kodiak’s public library. Our activities include a number of fundraisers and services, such as:
Book Sales
KPLA raises funds through book sales at the Kodiak Crab Festival in May. KPLA has other pop-up book sales, holiday giveaways, and is now playing a small part in the Santa in the Villages. Used books are also for sale at the library year round.
Public Events
KPLA helps organize and promote author readings as wellas community travel lectures. We also participate in special projects sponsored by the public library.
Cruise Ship Welcomes
When visitors arrive on cruise ships and seek out free WiFi and other library services, KPLA volunteers are there to make them feel at home.
Would You Like to Host a Little Library?
In Kodiak it is KPLA’s goal to get books in the hands of children. The more books in or near the home, the more likely a child will learn and love to read.” Book sharing boxes play essential roles in providing 24/7 access to books.
This includes fishermen leaving or arriving on boats, tourists coming and going on the ferry, people waiting for a loved one in the hospital, people running in and out of the local grocery stop, food co-op or coffee shop.
No matter who you are, Kodiak Little Free Library has a book for you.
