We are thrilled to announce that our April 2026 used book sale was a phenomenal success! Thanks to the incredible support of our community, we netted over $11,000, which will be donated to support all seven Ramsey County Library locations.
This achievement is a direct result of the passion and dedication of our Library Friends. Whether you cleared out your shelves to donate books, spent hours as a volunteer stocking and organizing, or joined us to shop the sale, you made this possible.
Where the Funds Go
These proceeds play a vital role in enhancing library services across the county. Your contributions help fund:
Diverse Programming: From children’s storytimes to adult workshops.
Collection Enhancements: Expanding our reach with new books, media, and digital resources.
Community Initiatives: Supporting the unique needs of all seven branch locations.
A Heartfelt Appreciation
To everyone who participated: Thank you. You aren’t just supporting a building; you are supporting a community of readers and learners. We appreciate your continued commitment to making Ramsey County Library a vibrant resource for everyone.
