What a fantastic turnout for our most recent Friends of the Library book sale!!! 📚 We're absolutely thrilled to see so many book lovers and community members come out to support our beloved local library! All proceeds from these sales go directly back into your local library to support our many programs and extra special series throughout the year, including author readings, children's storytime, and summer reading programs. Your support helps us to continue providing free and accessible resources to our community, and we're so grateful for your generosity! 💕
Stay tuned for more information on our next Book Sale!

Summer reading got you down? 🤯 Don't forget to level up with our daily FOTL book shelfs, where classics are cheaper than your attention span! 😉

Huge props to our amazing Friend of the Library volunteers who saved the day (and our sanity) by helping prep for our kid's summer series! You guys are the real MVPs, giving our youth department a dino-sized boost to make this summer a roar-some one for hundreds of kiddos and their families! 🦖
If you'd like to help volunteer with The Friends, send us a DM and we can help you get started.
