As residents continue to clean out their libraries, those books can still be donated on Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Palisades Library, 861 Alma Real. Books may be donated beginning on February 14 and on every Wednesday through the remainder of February and all of March.
Friends of the Palisades Library are collecting gently read books that are in good condition that can be sold in a parking lot sale this spring. Books should not be written in or highlighted nor show signs of excessive wear and tear. Magazines, textbooks, CDs, DVDs, encyclopedias or library books are not accepted.
Friends President Laura Schneider said, “We are planning a book sale for April. Please stay tuned for the big announcement regarding our first parking lot book sale since 2019!”
Residents are asked NOT to leave book donations at the library when volunteers are not present.
“Our work in the community would not be possible without our members and volunteers,” she said and added that people who would like more information or would like to volunteer with Friends to email friends@friendsofpalilibrary.org.
