Friends of the Public Library

Ricki is a volunteer at the “Friends of the Public Library” store. She counts and adds up the cost of books purchased at the facility located on University Blvd.

The last time I went to the store she checked me out. Today, she recognized me with a “You’re back” attitude and helped me again today.

Thousands and thousands of book are stored there.  Some are donated from private owners and others are weeded out of the Public Library System.  If you’ve never been to a “Friends of the Public Library” sale, it’s a must.  Throughout the year, there are book sales at different and various libraries and then there is this great place where hours are set on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

This is a must-go place. If you’re a member which costs $20 a year, you get BOGO on all store items all year long.  It’s definitely worth it!  Then there are the book sales where you can get full bags for low prices and if you’re a member, a BOGO.  Go to their website at FJPL . Org or drop by 3435 University Blvd. Jacksonville, Florida and get you some deals! If you go, say hi to my new friend “Ricki”.  

See you tomorrow,

Nan
