Have you visited the Seed Library and planted seeds of your own? We'd love to hear about your experience!

Whether you've enjoyed fresh vegetables from your garden, added beautiful flowers to your yard, grown fresh herbs for your kitchen, or shared the joy of planting with your little ones, your story matters! 🌷🥕🌿

Our friends at Russell County - Alabama Extension would love to hear how the Seed Library has made an impact on you and your family. If you've used our free seeds, please consider sharing a short impact statement about your experience. Stop by the library and let us know how your seeds have grown or private message us your name and number and someone from the Extension office will reach out to you! 💚

We have THE BEST FOL and are so thankful for all they do for us! In honor of National Friends of the Library Week here are a few facts about The Friends of the Phenix City- Russell County Library 🎉🩷📚

📚The FOL Bookstore, run by volunteers who sort, stack and resell donated books, is open every Tuesday from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM

📚A FOL Bag of Book Sale is held twice annually. Patrons can purchase a $5 brown paper bag to fill with as many books as it will hold.

📚New friends are always welcome! Prospective members who would like to spend a few hours a week in support of the library are encouraged to drop by the Library Bookstore any Tuesday to meet some of the Friends.
