FRIENDS OF PINOLE LIBRARY
Early in 2015, the Friends of the
Pinole Library presented Ian Richards
(l) a check for $10,000 for the Pinole
Library. This gift was a result of hard
work on the part of the Friends consisting of biannual book sales, ongoing Farmers Market presence, the
Upscale Garage Sale, and the daily
sales at the Pinole Library. Most of
these events are directed by Michael
Cembura (r) who presented the gift.
Daily Book Sales
The Friends of the Pinole Library are excited for their display of books for sale in the Pinole Library. With at least 20
plus genres, the selection is wide and varied, ranging from
Children’s Books starting at $0.25 up to Specialty / Coffee
Table books starting at $1.50. These books and CD’s are
available each hour that the Pinole Library is open. The
honor system is in effect with a black coin box in the tall
shelves in the entry. The daily sales are a vital part of the
fund raising process.
Annual Book Sale
The Friends of the Pinole Library will host its biannual book
sale on October 17, 2015, at the Pinole Library. There are
thousands of books that have been organized into over
thirty categories and genres from which to choose. Members are welcomed into the sale at 9 am and the general
public at 10 am. Memberships are available at the
door. The fundraising event supports the Pinole Library
throughout the year.
