The Friends of the Library Bookshelf

Another chance to fill in your collection of Nancy Drew books!  We have a second donation from a complete set of the famous girl detective novels, some very old, but hard to find titles.  These classics are perfect curl-up-by-the-fire reads.

Thinking of donating books to the library?  Do it now!  The newer the books, the more likely they are to be added to the library’s collection.  They will also be welcome at the Bookshelf and appreciated by our customers.

Bookshelf hours are from 10:30-5:00 on weekdays and from 12:00-2:00 on Saturdays
