BOOK DONATIONS (temporarily suspended)
Donations of gently used books, CDs, and DVDs are greatly appreciated by the Friends of the Arroyo Grande Library. The sales of these items is a significant source of funding for the AG library and profits go directly to support the library.
However, due to the pending library closure for renovation, we have temporarily stopped accepting Books/AV item donations. For more information, please click on the Library Renovation link here or at the top of this page.
