Congratulations to the Emerging Leaders of the Boston Public Library Fund for hosting an incredible Night in the Stacks. This inaugural event for young Bostonians, held on October 14, raised more than $111,000 for the Library’s programs, services, and collections.

Some 220 guests were in attendance to experience the historic McKim Building after dark. Between tours of the Sargent Gallery, dancing in the Abbey Room, and trivia with the Leventhal Map and Education Center – a great time was had by all.

Special thanks to our lead sponsors, State Street, Boston.com, and the Bruins for their generous support.

Save the date for next year: October 20, 2023!
