$10 Individual - Yearly
Supporting the Altoona Area Public Library
The Friends of the Altoona Library support programs and activities
of the Library by raising money and volunteering their time.
Book Sale
The Friends of the Altoona Library hold a used book sale twice a year, once in the spring and again in the fall. Profits support programs and activities at the library. The Friends present the proceeds from their trust fund and money from their general fund to the Library each year for materials and programming. Last year the Friends donated over $50,000 to the Library.
We wish to thank all of our generous patrons who have made book donations recently. Due to the overwhelming response, we are currently unable to take any additional donations at this time. We will resume taking book donations again in the new year.
For further information about what items can be donated, click here.
There will be NO fall book sale for 2021. The next scheduled book sale will be in April 2022.
Membership Tea
The Friends hold a Membership Teas in September and May with presentations from guest speakers. They also present monthly evening programs on a variety of topics. The membership drive is open all year. For more information, please contact the library at 814-946-0417.
