Book bag available through the Friends of Lopez Island Library

Get ready for the Fall Book Sale! Friday, Nov. 26th

Friends of the Lopez Island Library expects a big turnout for the book sale on the day after Thanksgiving. There'll be some tremendous bargains, including the ever popular, "Buy a book bag and fill it for free" deal. Come early before the bags sell out! Kudos to our hard-working volunteers who work all year sorting and preparing for our twice a year book sales. Here are some examples of where the money goes:

  • The Hawkeye Herman blues guitar and blues history talk in October 2010.

  • Architectural fees for the Reading Rooom addition to be started in 2011

  • Parasol Puppets April 28th performance "Chickens & Pigs & Bears . . . Oh My!"

  • Purchased video-conferencing equipment and monitor for the community meeting room

  • Supporting the upcoming Adult Winter Reading Program

  • Pays for advertisements for Art in the Library

  • Purchases refreshments for literary salon

  • Purchase of books and furniture for the library

  • Supported two summer teen interns
