Friends Book Store

Please donate your gently used books, music cds, and dvds to the Friends Book Store.



We need your donations of books to keep our store stocked (no text books please). We also need books for our annual Book Sale in the fall. Bring donations to the Friends Book Store, or call 541-928-4400 for book pick-up.



Proceeds from the Friends Book Store goes to help the Library with programs and purchases.



Did you know that you can donate your books at the Downtown Carnegie Library? There is a great little annex of our book store at the Carnegie branch.



Please help today!

We have many volunteer opportunities at the Library. Volunteering is a great way to donate your time and energy to the Library and our community.

From teens to retirees ... it is the dedication of our people that ultimately upholds the Albany Public Library's commitment to excellence. Please join us at the Library!
