The Friends of the Library Bookshelf

Romance, romance, romance! You will find many of your favorite authors in this week’s large special collection, perfect for fireside and Valentine’s Day reading. This week you will find books by popular authors like Oke, Lew, Brunstetter, and Macomber on the cart outside the Bookshelf door.
Remember that the library welcomes donations of gently read books and magazines. Those that the library does not need come to the Bookshelf, with all the proceeds benefiting the library. Do not forget to visit the “back room” of the Bookshelf for newly stocked non-fiction and magazines.
Bookshelf hours are from 10:30-5:00 on weekdays and from 12:00-2:00 on Saturdays.
