January
2012 marks the sixth anniversary of the Friends of the Santa Monica Public
Library Book Store. With your help, we have raised over half a
million dollars, used to support library programs such as Citywide Reads and
the Image Archive Collection, and to supplement funding for books, CDs, videos,
movies, furniture, Children’s and Youth Services programs, new technology, and
preservation of historical documents. We thank
all our patrons and volunteers for their fabulous support!
New books and audio/video materials arrive by the dozens every
day, so drop by soon. Bookstore hours are Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday
from 11-4:30, Sunday 1:30-4:30, closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Location is on
the left as you enter through the north entrance of the Main Library at 601
Santa Monica Boulevard.
