Libraries
I donate money regularly to my local library, but when I realize how often I ask them to get books for me that I've seen at the local MegaBooks, and they do it, without a charge to me of any kind, I think "I should give more."
I doubt my local library knows. Most of the time, I don't even get a thank you when I mail them a check. In comparison, I still remember a letter I got from the Dallas Public Library, acknowedging a donation, that started with "Once again we must thank you for ...." THEY knew.

Libraries are an extremely valuable public service for the community and particularly those who have very limited budgets...may they rule forever!
Yes you should! Not only do libraries really rely on donations, but we know who gives us money and we're grateful. (I work in a library.)
