The Friends hold a large annual sale in the mall of the East Hills Shopping Center and have found that they have so many books for sale in the fall that many don’t get their chance to be perused for purchase.
The Friends of the St. Joseph Public Library is a non-profit organization that supports literacy in the community and the public library system. Proceeds from the sale help fund Summer Reading Programs for all ages at the four library branches, as well as book clubs, adult programs and BookPage, a monthly magazine for readers, free to pick up at any library branch.
