Afterwords Bookstore
Used books are available for purchase at unbeatable prices in our basement bookstore. Head downstairs to shop for books for yourself, for children, for caregivers, for friends. We have a great selection of children's books, teen and adult fiction, and nonfiction. Plus audiobooks on CD, DVD movies and music CDs. Books make great gifts!
We are also accepting donations in excellent condition. Donated books can be dropped off at the bottom of the basement stairs, through the gray door in the Children's Room. Please do not leave donations outside in the elements.
Check out the AfterWords bookstore's wonderful collection of gently used books of all kinds - children's, travel, picture, popular fiction and a great selection of non-fiction. Prices range from $.50 to $2.00.
AfterWords is located in the basement of the library. Open the gray door in the children's department and go down the stairs. Please leave donations in the bins at the bottom of the stairs. Pay for your books upstairs at the Circulation Desk. Funds raised by the bookstore provide additional support for library services.
