The Friends of the Pleasanton Library is a volunteer organization
whose purpose is to support the library and to supplement library
services and materials.
The Friends sponsor two major book sales per year. Additionally, the Friends have a year-round magazine and paperback sale in the library. To round out book-buying opportunities, the Friends list approximately 400 titles of unusual, rare, and special books on the internet at http://www.amazon.com/shops/ptwnfriends. The Friends are always looking for volunteers to sort, setup, and run the book sales. The Friends also need help sorting and restocking magazines and paperbacks year-round.
Members of the Friends volunteer teams shelve children's picture books, videos, and CDs; mend books; process and shelve magazines; and serve as docents for our genealogy collection.
The Friends 2011 Fall Book Sale generated $16,947 to be used to purchase items for the library.
