The Friends’ Annual Book Sale is the organization’s biggest fundraising event. In
addition to raising funds for library educational and cultural programs, the Book Sale
helps to get books back out into the community. Books are sold for as low as $1.
Children’s books begin at 10 cents. This is without a doubt the most important Friends
event.
This all volunteer project begins in May when volunteers are needed to sort thousands of donated used books through December to help staff various positions during the 5-day sale.
To learn more, call (305) 375-4776 or email friends@mdpls.org.
DONATE USED BOOKS
Used books that are donated to the Friends may be either added to the Library’s collection or sold at the Friends annual December Book Sale to raise funds for materials, programs or other enhancements.
Books that have the highest likelihood of being added to the collection or sold in the book sale are those that are clean, dry and in good condition If the books or materials you donate are outdated (most textbooks and technology books) or damaged (torn or defaced pages), we must discard them. Therefore we request that you recycle these instead of donating them to us.
You may bring your donations, preferably packed in sturdy boxes, to any branch of the Miami-Dade Public Library.
To learn more, call (305) 375-4776 or email friends@mdpls.org.
