The San José Public Library Foundation is a local nonprofit that supports the San José Public Library system in California. It was founded in 1987 by community volunteers who believed that a robust library network requires more than public funding. The foundation aims to ensure equitable access to learning, creation, study, and exploration for everyone in the community.

It collaborates with public libraries and city services to offer programs that broaden opportunities for residents, including adult education through Career Online High School and mentoring initiatives such as the San Jose Aspires Mentoring Meetup Series launched in 2021. In 2025, it partnered with Sourcewise and local government agencies to launch the Digital Ambassador Program, an effort to support older community members' digital literacy and access. The organization is based in San Jose, California, and operates within the nonprofit sector to augment library services for the local community.
