All proceeds from membership costs go directly to supporting library programs and services for the community. Our past book sales have raised almost $500,000, which has been used to support library services, such as the Battle of the Books, eReader purchases, teen writing workshops, and the Queen Elizabeth Park Cultural and Community Centre Teen Book Depot. This book depot is a great place for teens in the area to take out library books they otherwise may not have had access to, and the latest and greatest in young adult literature is lent out on an honour system basis. Not to mention, it gives teens a terrific community space to hang out, do homework or play video games. Looking to fill student community service hours, or just your time? Volunteers are needed for the book sale. Please contact folio@ friendsofthelibrary.ca if you are interested. -- Submitted by the Oakville Public Library
