ABOUT THE USED BOOKSTORE

The used book store operated by St. Cloud Friends of the Library volunteers is located just inside the St. Cloud Library, where LeAnn says they have more than just books for sale. They also have music CDs, audiobooks, gift cards, and more that are all donated to them. You can literally get all the holiday cards you need for the year for a fraction of the cost of buying them at stores. Christmas cards, thank you cards, you name it, they have a large selection.

FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY USED BOOK STORE

Items including CDs, DVDs, and other non-book items will also be available for the book sale. The Bag of Books sale will be held in the Mississippi Room, and new books will be reintroduced each day of the event. You CAN still shop at the used bookstore even when volunteers aren't present. Simply drop your check or cash in the drop box located at the front of the store.
