We put a ton of time into organizing the book sale room. Unfortunately we have no more space for Religion NF or Political books. War and Cookbook shelves have very limited space. We do not need any more books donated from these categories until after our December book sale.

Also we have a huge selection of Children's Religion books. I have tried to get people to come look and no one comes.

PS. If no one would buy your very outdated text books online, they probably won't buy them from us either.

Thanks for listening. And thanks again for the donations, we are just running out of space.

Still have some Blind Date with a book packages at the library. They are found on the main floor beside the circulation desk (under the reserve books).
Update: Dropping the price to $5 each so the Friends can break even. :)

I recently heard on the radio that CDs are making a comeback as the most preferred music media. No need to order off eBay or search thrift stores. Come to the Friend's Sales Rooms. We have lots to look through

Trivia Night is one of our biggest fundraisers and we are excited it is back. In order to make it a success, we need the support of amazing businesses in our community. We are currently looking for Round Sponsors ($100 and your business logo is up for a whole round of trivia) or donations for door prizes. If you are interested please reach out to [email protected]. New this year, you could pay as a Round Sponsor online. Please help us to make Trivia Night "Party Like It's 1986" a success.

Please support my important cause!

Restocking the table. A junior volunteer suggested "realistic fiction". There is some other stuff out as well.
