So where did all of these great used books come from?

Book-lovers across Metro New Orleans donate their books to Friends to show their support for the New Orleans Public Library and its programs. Volunteers work year-round in preparation for the event, processing thousands of books each year.

 It’s so much more than a book sale – it is a celebration of reading, of lifelong learning, and, most importantly, of our beloved  public libraries.
