HPL has been blessed with a wonderful and strong Friends of the Library group. They have worked tirelessly for many years with one goal in mind - to get books into the hands of people. And they have been incredibly successful! They do this by selling donated books from their shop in the library. Those $0.10 and $0.25 books have amounted to enough money to help us expand our collections, bring authors here from far-away places, make the summer reading program a success for children, and even build spaces such as this in our library:
These are all things that would not have happened without donated books. If you have a stack of paperbacks you've read and no longer want, bring them in. That blockbuster thriller you read once and is now gathering dust - bring it too! Our Friends of the Library will take them and return the fruits to us all in the form of a better library.
