Guide to OC Public Libraries Friends’ Bookstores 

Many Friends of the Library groups help fund their support for branches of OC Public Libraries through volunteer-operated bookstores and smaller book sale areas in or adjacent to the library.  Gently used hardcover and paperback books, magazines, movies and music are among the many items available at reasonable prices.  Please call the branch nearest you for information about occasional book sales and silent auctions.

Bookstore hours may vary with availability of volunteers
