Friends of Rosenberg Library

Friends of Rosenberg Library "Friends" supports library activities through sales of donated gently used books. Book Shop on the second floor is open during library hours. Join as a member!

Annual sale is in March. “Friends” has been working since 1940 to support Galveston’s Rosenberg Library by providing books, equipment and related materials, and to educate the public about the wonderful services the library provides. The Friends of the Rosenberg Library maintains the Friends Book Shop which is open during regular library hours and is located on the second floor of the library. The

Shop offers donated books for sale that have been gently used and in nearly new condition. Friends also holds an Annual Used Book Sale in the Fall that, throughout the years, has become an anticipated event in the community. All book sale profits are dedicated to the library’s circulating materials, such as books, CDs, DVDs, etc., that may be checked-out by library patrons. Friends of the Rosenberg Library relies on the generosity of its community friends to supply the gently used books for both sales, but most especially for the year-round sale in the Friends Book Shop.
