Support the Friends of Seekonk Library

Posted

Volunteers Needed
Do you love your library? Have you considered giving back by volunteering? The Friends of Seekonk Library is looking for volunteers to staff the lobby book sale! The shifts we currently have available are Monday through Thursday from 5-8 PM. You will assist customers with their selections and collect money for their purchases. Those who staff the book sale find it to be a rewarding experience helping people find something they want at great prices! If interested, send an email to friends@seekonkpl.org with the subject line “lobby volunteer”. Thank you for your consideration.

Attention Vendors & Crafters!
We will be holding our annual Craft & Vendor Sale on Saturday November 28, 2015 (Small Business Saturday). The hours of the sale are from 9-3. There are currently just EIGHT tables left, so if you are interested, please send an email to friends@seekonkpl.org with the subject line “Craft Sale”.

BOGO Book & Antiquarian Book Sale
What could be better than our bargain book prices? Getting one free! On Saturday August 29, we will be holding a BOGO (Buy-One-Get-One Free) book sale alongside an Antiquarian Book Sale! All lobby books will be sold on a BOGO basis. We will also have a selection of antiquarian books available for purchase as well. The sale will run from 9-5, however, the antiquarian sale will end at 2PM.

Book Donation Reminder
The Friends welcome book donations according to the following guidelines. Please remember that these items are meant to be re-sold in our lobby, so we cannot accept items that are musty, mildewed, torn, missing parts, etc. Thank you!

Book Donation Guidelines
The Friends of the Seekonk Public Library accepts donations year round according to the following guidelines:

  • Books must be in good to excellent condition - there should be no writing/highlighting, no torn pages, and no mold/mildew/dampness. If the book was sold with a book jacket, it should be on the book.
  • Magazines should have covers and no more than 3 months old. 
  • Puzzles that are in good condition and DVDs are accepted.
