    Amazon Smile [discontinued)

    Q&A and Comments: * Does Amazon Smile support count towards donations at the Library and thus forum recognition. In short, no. We don't have a way to track it. It is appreciated but doesn't go to fruit symbols or donor counts. Also, I think it does technically count as Amazon's...
