ATLA - Anderson Township Library Association

ATLA - Anderson Township Library Association Washington (OH) branch libraries. Every year ATLA holds two used book sales to benefit the Anderson and Mt. Washington branch libraries. Washington branches.

*Our big summer sale is June 19-21, 2026, at Nagel Middle School!*
The Anderson Township Library Association
(ATLA) is a volunteer group that supports the facilities, services, & resources of the Anderson Township & Mt. Last year the proceeds from the summer sale and the holiday sale totaled $40,000. Over the past 30 years, ATLA has raised more than $1 million in funds for the two libraries. This

money allows the two branch libraries to buy items and pay for programs that are not part of the regular budget. These purchases include computers and software, iPads, yoga classes, additional books and DVDs, puppet shows, and the Miss Liz music programs. Currently ATLA is in need of donations large and small (except encyclopedias). You can drop them off at either the Anderson or Mt. Both locations have donation bins inside. Gently used puzzles are also accepted. The Anderson Branch is located at 7450 State Road and the Mt. Washington Branch is at 2049 Beechmont Ave.
