From Canada
The Bibliothèque nationale de France wishes to expand its North American partnerships by creating a new bridge with Canada. Thanks to the Myriad Canada structure, it is now possible to support BnF projects via the site of our Canadian friends, and thus benefit from the tax advantages provided for by Canadian legislation.
From Europe
The Bibliothèque nationale de France is accredited by the Fondation de France and thus benefits from Transnational Giving Europe (TGE). The TGE network allows donors, whether individuals or corporate taxpayers from one of the member states to support the BnF while enjoying the fiscal advantages of their country of residence.
TGE can receive donations from Germany, Belgium, Bulgaria, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, the United Kingdom, Slovakia, Luxembourg, and Switzerland.
