Jefferson Society

Donors within our Jefferson Society are members of the Library Foundation's leadership-level giving group.

Don't miss the 2024 members-only Jefferson Society Luncheon with South Florida author Dara Levan on Wednesday, November 13. Levan will speak about her debut novel, It Could Be Worse.

Through annual giving of $1,000 or more, our Jefferson Society members help to fund and grow the programming available at all 37 branches within the Broward County Library system. To recognize this generous support, Jefferson Society members can enjoy a multitude of benefits including two tickets to A Night of Literary Feasts, access to book clubs, Books & Bites events, and an exclusive invitation to attend the annual Jefferson Society Luncheon. This private luncheon, typically held in the fall, features conversation and dining with an author in Fort Lauderdale. Each attending household receives a complimentary copy of the guest author’s book.
