We hope you’ve been taking advantage of the Friends’ book cart sale.
However, the metal carts will be removed in several days. The exciting news is
that they’ll be replaced with 60 feet of proper bookshelf space! This change
will allow Friends to offer a larger selection of books. Unlike a typical book
sale, you may shop any time during library hours. Books will be rotated
in/out on a regular basis, so check back often to see what’s new. Who doesn’t
like the ‘thrill of the hunt’ and wallet friendly prices!?
Speaking of budgets... Libraries worldwide have been hard hit by the
shaky economy and continue struggling to do more with less. Money raised by Ocee
Friends (through book sales and memberships) goes toward making up some of
that difference. These funds are used to purchase books, media, and to bring free programs
to Ocee library.
Stop by to see our ‘makeover’ and shop an expanded assortment of fiction,
non-fiction, and children’s books!
