The Friends of the Library Bookshelf

Cook up something nice for Mom with recipes from the excellent selection of cook books featured in the Bookshelf this week. We have classics like Southern Living and Taste of Home, as well as international, grilling, and community cookbooks, all in excellent condition.
Take a look at the “last chance” shelves where our inventory of half-priced books is refreshed weekly. You can put your payment for these books in the donations box if the Bookshelf is closed.
