About the FOL:
Friends of the Library has been dedicated to serving the Alachua County Library District for over 65 years. We accept donations year around and welcome volunteers of all ages to help with our sales. Our goal is to give back to Alachua County community in any way that we can. Our library programs include scholarships and literacy projects. We offer mini-grants to eligible organizations in Alachua County. Not to mention our huge twice-annual book sale that is made possible by donations from members of the community! Profits from our book sales are what make it possible for us to fund the projects we care so much about. Our sale lasts for five days, from Saturday to Wednesday. Everything is half-price on Tuesday and 10 cents on Wednesday. Most prices are under $5 and can be as low as 25 cents. Bring your own bags to the sale for all the amazing books we have in store and please note that we now accept cash, checks w/ ID, credit cards, and Apple Pay. Our sales offer books spanning a wide range of topics including all types of fiction and literature, children’s books, non-fiction and education, as well as a variety of comic books, music and movies in all formats, art and so much more! The FOL Collector’s Corner is what sets us apart from other book sales around Florida. Be on the lookout for vintage posters and collectibles when you step into our Corner. But don’t let the signed first editions and unique Florida history daunt you; the Collector’s Corner has something for every collector in every price range. To find out more about who we are and what we do, follow us on FB, IG & Twitter, visit our website, and dive deep by reading our newsletter!
