Please do not drop off donations at the Library at other times or dates, because these drop-offs will be discarded.

Dear Book Sale Volunteers,

Thank you very much for helping us with our recent Friends of the Healdsburg Library Book Sale. We are happy to report that we brought in over $5700 during the sale from new and renewed memberships and the sale of our beautiful donated books, CDs, DVDs and puzzles. We could not do it without the support of our wonderful community and from kind and generous volunteers like you.

All of this revenue will go to support the programs and services provided by our delightful Healdsburg Library.

Thank you very much for your support!

Sincerely,

Theresa Cabral,

FoHL book sale chairperson
