The Bookshelf has received another generous donation of like-new books on religion and spirituality. Many of these recent publications are completely unread, all in excellent condition.
If you’re not already a Friend of the Library please join us next time you come into the Bookshelf. Memberships start at only $10.00 and contribute to buying new books for the GCL.
