With the help of many wonderful volunteers, the Friends organization operates three Used Bookstores and three Book Carts at different Ramsey County Library locations where you can find great bargains on used books and media materials. Bookstores and Carts are open during regular library hours. Payment is based on an honor system; simply drop your cash or check into the locked container at each site. Proceeds support Ramsey County Library. Items change weekly so be sure to drop by when you visit your local library branch!
