Name a Spot
The Wi-Fi
Invisible, essential, and now (in name only) yours.
The air itself
It reaches the parking lot, and someone out there is using it right now for something that matters to them.
Ceremonial naming minimum: $400
Bestow a Ceremonial Name on The Wi-Fi
The minimum gift is $400. Big donors name buildings. You can name The Wi-Fi. Give it the ceremonial name it deserves.
Used for confirmation and on your certificate unless you choose anonymity.
Used for confirmation, your certificate, and any questions about your submission. Never displayed publicly.
Minimum $400. Giving more does not make the name any more official, but we will not object.
This is the symbolic name that will appear on the spot’s page and your certificate. You may use your name, honor someone else, or devise something family-friendly. Include the kind of spot in the name so visitors can tell what has been named.
Add a dedication, explanation, or brief joke. This appears beneath the ceremonial name but is not the name itself.
Your ceremonial name and inscription will still appear. Your certificate will use “Anonymous Donor.”
Your gift will support the campaign, but the spot will remain available for naming.
Secure payment via Stripe. Fully tax-deductible, you receive nothing, which is rather the point. Friends of the Orange County Public Library, Inc., EIN 58-1507922.

- The Wi-Fi continues serving everyone exactly as before.
This naming is purely ceremonial. It conveys no ownership, physical signage, reserved access, or operational authority of any kind. The Wi-Fi remains at the library, for everyone.
Why It Matters
The storytimes, welcoming spaces, useful technology, and small details that make a child feel at home in the library do not happen by accident. They come from dedicated library staff, and from neighbors who choose to help fund something beyond the minimum.
From Summer Reading to equipment, training, programs, and improvements to library spaces, Friends support helps turn good ideas into memorable experiences.
Every naming is ceremonial. The help it provides is real.
