The Book Nook Needs Your Help! 

Thursday, May 10, 2012

The Friends of the Library are making a special call for book donations as our Book Nook supply is dwindling. You are reading and buying our bargains so fast, we can’t keep up! We are especially looking for non-fiction, any paperbacks you have, and mysteries galore.
 

Why should you donate to the Book Nook?
The reasons are two-fold. First, the proceeds from the Book Nook benefit the library which in turn benefits you, so really, you’re just doing yourself a favor. And second, your donation is tax-deductible. How convenient! Saving money without spending money!

 

How can you donate to the Book Nook?
Simply bring all your donations to the library’s Cards and Accounts Desk or drop your donations in our drive thru book drop behind the library.

 

And don’t forget to shop our Book Nook while you’re in the library. After all, the proceeds can’t benefit the library if there are no proceeds in the first place! But don’t worry; all Book Nook items are priced for affordability with some items at just 15 cents!
