The Friends of the Kalamazoo Public Library is an independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the library as an essential institution in our community. With sales of gently used books from the Friends Bookstore, membership dues, and gifts, the group provides ongoing support to many Kalamazoo Public Library outreach programs and services. It also encourages literacy and reading within the community by making affordable quality reading materials available to everyone. The Friends is governed by an elected board with two part-time employees and more than 150 dues-paying members. We are one of more than 2,000 Friends of the Library groups nationwide.
Good service, helpful. They helped with finding exercise (gym) books & DVD's, non blue ray. Also helpful for signing up for a library card, son's passport. 👍🏼

I love this place! The book selection is well-organized & covers every category I can think of. The books ( and videos and CDs) are so inexpensive you can walk out with an armload for a few dollars.
