The Friends of the Library Bookshelf

Everything you wanted to know about?  You fill in the name, and we will find you a book on that person in the large collection biographies featured at the Bookshelf this week.

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
