Stop into the new Brooklyn Branch (7619 Memphis Avenue) and make a card or drop off a card for a local person with disabilities.

Join us, Cuyahoga County Public Library's Social Work Team and the Brooklyn Branch, as we celebrate the season by hosting Five Weeks of Giving for our community members who are in need of kind and carding gestures during the holiday season. 

Stop into the Brooklyn Branch and give your time one of two ways during our greeting card drive.

You can create a season-themed/inspirational greeting card at our card-making station. 

Or, you can drop off a card (homemade or store-bought--your choice) for a local senior.  Please address the card for people with disabilities.

Library staff from the Social Work Team will deliver the cards to the organizations/agencies selected each week.

About the branch

CCPL’s popular toy collection got its start as a special collection located in the Brooklyn Branch. The collection was housed exclusively at the Brooklyn Branch from 1992 until 2007, when access was expanded throughout the county. Today, anyone with a CCPL library card can request toys from the collection and have them delivered to the CCPL branch of their choice for pick-up.

This branch is a Student Success Center and a Greater Cleveland Food Bank Kids Café location.
