Billings Library is holding their annual silent auction fundraiser again this fall!

Auction items are posted online with a brief description (including donor information), allowing participants to bid on them, live, over the course of 4 days. 

Eeach year, the library's silent auction includes a wide variety of goods ranging from original artwork and luxury knit goods, to gravel loads and plane tickets. There is always something to pique your interest!

Funds raised support the library in a variety of ways, with a focus being on building our existing collection as well as expanding our 'library of things' (ex. cake pans, telescopes, board games, etc).

Located on Manitoulin Island in Northern Ontario, Billings Library serves a rural and relatively remote region. 

The fundraiser is promoted in local media (newspaper and radio) as well as via social media. Social media reach is significant as several hundred season residents and their families follow us from all parts of Southern Ontario and throughout the United States.
