WE’RE HERE TO HELP

The Small Business and Nonprofit Department offers many avenues for support, including one-to-one appointments, classes, drop in hours, outreach to branches and more.

We’re bringing our small business and nonprofit know­-how to conveniently located Library branches throughout Lucas County. Each month, you’ll find specialist librarians at:

  • Mott: First Monday | 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Heatherdowns: Second Monday |  1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Sylvania: Third Monday |  1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
  • Sanger: Fourth Monday |  1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Receive assistance with business plans, industry and donor research, nonprofit grants, and more! 30-minute appointments are available.

The Small Business and Nonprofit librarian team uses the Main Library downtown as their home base and are available to make appointments to fit your schedule.

In order to ensure you are supported by the business or nonprofit librarian best suited to meet your needs, contact the team at business@toledolibrary.org or call 419.214.6131 to book a dedicated one-to-one assistance session.

 

Available for Library patron and partner use, this flexible meeting and workspace serves a variety of purposes.

Entrepreneurs and nonprofit professionals are able to drop-in without an appointment! Connect with specialist librarians in the Workspace during these hours:

  • Tuesdays from 1- 5 p.m.
  • Wednesdays from 1 – 5 p.m.
  • Thursdays from 1 – 5 p.m.
