Friends of the Library Book Sale
Saturday, September 5, 9am-3pm
Spines

Science has determined that holding and reading a physical book has greater physiological and intellectual benefits than watching something flit by on a screen. Spines is full of physical books and we are glad to share them! Spines is located just west of Cole Park. Look for our Free books, Half-Priced books, CDs and DVDs. Spines and the Book Nook at the library now accept Venmo payment, although we prefer cash or check. Proceeds support the collections and programs at the Alamosa Public Library.
