THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY BOOKSTORE

Friends of the Library bookstore entranceThe Bookstore is the Friends' primary source of funding. All revenue goes to the library. The Bookstore, located left of the entrance foyer at the Main Library, is operated entirely by volunteers.

IMAGINE clearing your home of the things that take up needed space. 

DONATE your gently used items and reclaim that space!

WE NEED BOOKS -- all kinds, including reference books and foreign language -- AUDIO-VISUALS -- movies (DVD and VHS), books-on-tape, music (CDs and vintage records), video games -- MAGAZINES and comics!

 

VOLUNTEERS roll up their sleeves!

Inquire at the Bookstore or establish your interest in volunteering by phoning the Bookstore (256-532-5986).  You must be a Friends member to work in the Bookstore.
