Book Sales in Libraries

Now you can “Buy the Book” at the Murphy - Wilmot Library branch, 530 N. Wilmot Road.  In an area provided by the library, the Friends have set up a retail space with books, DVDs, and audio books.  These are current releases or classic favorites in very good condition that have been donated to Friends.  The books can be purchased anytime the library is open and sales operate on an honor system

 Friends also sells books year round online and at library locations at River Road and the new space at on Wilmot Road.  Due to the success of the River Road book cart, we were encouraged to open up other sites that were interested.  Two more branches, Nanini and Catalina, are setting up to open retail space by August 1^st. 

 Thanks to Marcia Winick, David Ellington, Phyllis, and Jo Reister for their hard work in setting up and maintaining these retail spaces. 

Mission Accomplished!

For the fiscal year 2006-2007, Friends donated $216,000 to the Pima County Public Library.  Well Done!  This is what’s it all about, after all.  Outstanding book sale revenues, online sales, and off-site sales combined with membership dues and donations to make this a banner year in contributions.  Thank you EVERYONE!
