Barbara Stedman loved reading, and Steve asked me to convey that her
favorite charity was the Putnam County Library (50 East Broad Street,
Cookeville, TN 38501; 931-526-2416). You can suggest for the library to
purchase a book with the donation (please provide the ISBN number). The
following is from their website:

Memorial and Honor Book Program

The Board of Trustees of the Putnam County Library welcomes monetary
donations to the library's Memorial and Honor Book programs. 

Donations of twenty-five dollars or more will have a book or books purchased
for a specific library in the system. A bookplate with the person's name who
is being memorialized or honored will be put in the book. A permanent card
will be placed in the library and a card will be sent to the family. 

Donations between $10-$24 go to each library's Memorial/Honor Fund. These
monies accumulate and books are purchased from this fund. Books purchased
with Memorial/Honor Fund monies do not have an individual's name on the
bookplate, but are designated as memorial or honor books with a generic
bookplate. However, for each donation to the Fund, a permanent card will be
placed in the library and a card will be sent to the family. 

Donors may select whether they want their gift to be used for adults,
children, large print, genealogy, reference or audiovisuals. The library
staff will work with the donors giving over $25 to select a specific book to
add to the library's collection.

Books that are donated to the library are considered gifts and will not be
added to the collection as memorial or honor books. Genealogy books or books
on Tennessee maybe considered as memorials or honor books if they are not
ready available.
