Another Sale in the Books! A Thank You From the DFPL
The Desmond Fish Public Library Board and staff and the Friends of the Library extend appreciation and gratitude to all who contributed to the success of our annual Friends Book Sale.
A long-time DFPL tradition, the Book Sale offered over 35,000 books this year, and generated close to $18,000 to support the Library. The proceeds will be used to add to the Library’s collections, support programs such as the New Parents Group and Pumpkin Glow, and contribute to the development of a new nature play area for children.
Interested in joining the Friends of the Library and helping out with next year’s sale?

A survey regarding the Library name and future steps is forthcoming.
