Weekly News Column

Friends of the Library Book Sale in October

10/21/2016

 
This year, October 16–22 is the annual celebration of National Friends of Libraries Week.  Sedona Public Library takes this time to thank the Friends of the Sedona Library, who contribute so much of their time and expertise to significantly enhance our services. 
 
Our Friends group was started in 1964 and officially became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation in November 1967.  Donations and memberships are deductible to the full extent allowable by law.
 
The mission of the Friends of the Sedona Library is to support the Sedona Public Library as it strives to encourage literacy, lifelong learning, and the love of reading throughout our diverse community; to enhance the Library’s resources, increase the community’s access to information and knowledge; to provide for a vibrant cultural gathering place, and cultivate a sense of public involvement through volunteering for the community.
 
The Friends hold semiannual books sales that help fund collection expansion as well as children’s and other community programs during the year. The books that are offered through these sales come from the existing library collection when they are no longer needed by the Library and by ongoing donations from the community.
 
The schedule for this year’s Fall Book Sale is as follows:
Preview Night: Monday, October 24, 6:30 p.m.–8:00 p.m.  for Friends of the Library, invited guests, staff, and volunteers.
Sale: October 25–30
Sale open to the public during regular library hours Tuesday through Saturday and also on Sunday, October 30 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
 
The Friends also sell books online through Amazon.com. Take a peek at their inventory by going to http://www.amazon.com/shops/sedonafossilz.
 
You can also support the Friends of the Library by purchasing a Bashas’ Community Card at the Library’s reference desk for $10 (they are not available for purchase at the grocery store).  By purchasing a card, you can donate six percent of your regular grocery expenses to the Friends group, at no additional cost to you.
 
To support the goals of the Friends, you are cordially invited to join. To do so, please pick up a membership form at the Library or visit the library website:  www.sedonalibrary.org.
 
Members of the Friends Board are Charlene Lipka, President; Anne Smith, First Vice President; Mary Snyder, Second Vice President; Donna Hawk, Treasurer; Jawn McKinley, Trustee; and Brenda Holland, Trustee.  A special thank you to the Board and all who support the Library through membership in the Friends group. 
 
I know that the Sedona Public Library is a source of pride for our community.  Our Friends group is a source of pride as well.  I hope this week everyone will support this outstanding group.
