library for affordable books, magazines and videos on
sale. Proceeds benefit the Friends of the Library. The
Central Library Book Sale Room at the San Andreas
Library is staffed by volunteers on Tuesdays and

The Arnold Library has a gigantic book sale on Memorial

In addition, the Friends of the Calaveras County Library
are participating members in
Librarybooksales.org
The California State Library created
Librarybooksales.org to enable under-funded,
geographically remote libraries to raise much needed
monies by providing a convenient point of sale. The
project evolved as an offshoot of the California Rural
Library Initiative and was supported in part by the U.S.
Institute of Museum Services under the provisions of the
Library Services and Technology Act. By purchasing books
directly from a library using this site you can be
assured that the funds will promote literacy, purchase
needed supplies, equipment and books.
Librarybooksales.org matches you with rare,
collectible and quality books that have been donated to
public libraries. To view this limited collection of
special books for sale online by the Friends of the
Calaveras County Library visit
Librarybooksales.org. Choose "Browse" and then
select "Calaveras" from the list of participating
libraries. For the full selection of books for sale
visit your local Calaveras Library.
