Why Digital Bookplates?
Flexible fundraising platform for a digital world.Less staff time than traditional print-based
bookplate program.“Green”Bookplates can be associated with all types and
formats of materials, not just books.Donors can view their bookplate, or list of
materials purchased with their donation, without having to come in to the Library to find a particular item.
Bookplates do not have to be physically added to rare or valuable materials.
