What could be better than curling up with a good book during this very cold weekend. Please rescue a book this weekend at the New Rochelle Public Library they are giving away free children's books and just $1 for a full bag of adult fiction. Save the books before they go to the shredder next week and stay warm.

We found homes for over 2000 books today from the New Rochelle Public Library! Thank you to all the teachers who stopped by to gather books for their students. Thank you to Gary from the Thomas Paine Cottage Museum for your help delivering our heavy boxes to sites around our great City of New Rochelle, NY! And, thank you to my Mom, who spent 8 hours at the library packing books while I was in school. You make a difference, a HUGE difference!
Please stop by the Friends of the NRPL Book Store, New Rochelle Public Library, on Saturday from 10am-4pm to pick up some free children's books. Adult books are only $1 a bag!
