We are a nonprofit 501(3) group of volunteers dedicated to making our library system and its programs the best they can be.  Anyone who enjoys the pleasure of a good book or the myriad of benefits and services of the library should be a friend.  Our non-profit tax ID is 23-7098721.

The Friends work with library staff to sponsor:

  • Entertainment, education, and connection for local communities through book clubs, lectures, storytimes, movie nights, and crafting classes.

  • Internet and technology access, computer literacy skills, and support for individuals, businesses, job seekers, and entrepreneurs.

  • Conversation clubs in Spanish and English for adults learners and bilingual storytimes for children.

  • Give away books for children to keep and cherish.  Last year over 1500 new books were given to children in partnership with First 5 Marin.

  • On the Wall Art lending programs.

  • The Shop at South Novato, with hands-on learning and activities for all ages.

The Book Place has received a beautiful donation of The Heifetz Collection, Volumes 1-46. The set is comprised of 56 CDs presented in a unique storage case, and also includes a cardboard “suitcase” carrier. Most of the CDs were never opened. Valued at over $1000, we’re offering it at $850, or make us an offer!

August at The Book Place

 

With a little more summer left (and a bit more reading time), take advantage of the following specials:

  • Small paperback mysteries are just 50¢, great for for vacation or leisure.

  • Too busy to read? Why not try a short story collection? It’s a lesser commitment, and a relaxing brief respite. They’re also just 50¢.

  • All puzzles are $2 off our sticker price. Puzzles are a great summer evening activity, or stock up now for fall/winter.

  • All kids’ books with a yellow or red sticker are 50% off.

Book Donation Info​

 

We are always in need of gently-used materials to keep our selection fresh. We are in particular need of the non-Fiction categories: History, Biography, Military, Science, etc. However, we ask that you check the Donations Guidelines before packing your donation, as many categories have limits (such as, nothing published more than 5 years ago). We accept donations on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, 10am-4pm, at our large rollup door behind the store. Pull into the parking lot and look for us, where we’ll quickly screen your donation and provide a receipt if you like. If you are donating more than 2-3 bags/boxes, please phone ahead (415-209-0212) to check if we have room to take your donation, or if you have questions about anything you wish to donate. Thanks in advance!

The Book Place is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10am - 4 pm.

Donations accepted Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday ONLY 10am- 4pm.
