The Clayton Community Library Foundation (CCLF) was formed in 1989 to bring a library to Clayton. Working together with the city of Clayton and the Contra Costa County Library System, CCLF helped write the grant application which obtained Proposition 85 funds to build the Clayton Community Library.

Since the library was opened in 1995,  the CCLF continues to work on fund raising and volunteer program. To date, CCLF has raised over $250,000 for books, electronics, furniture and programs. These funds are raised by Used Book Sales, Foundation Memberships, community fund-raisers, corporate donations/matching grants, and foundation grants. Join the CCLF and help us to raise funds for books and materials, and provide volunteer help to the Clayton Community Library.
