Open at new location!

The "Friends" Used Bookstore is open for business again!

Starting August 1, 2019 at 10:30 am, we will be open to help you:

• find something interesting to read
• re-use and recycle titles other's may wish to read
• support capital purchases for the Kimberley Public Library and community literacy through your cash donations in payment for your book purchases

We are pretty much organized - just a bit of tweaking and maximizing our new larger space but for sure you will be able to find some books you want.

We have all the categories.  See our Hours and Info tab for a list of categories and expected hours.

Once again:  we are now at Unit #1, 196 Spokane

... which is not actually on Spokane, but off the Platzl parking lot ...
... which is west of the traffic light (there is only one in Kimberley)
... and north of Ross Street

aka:
... east side of the bottom of the walkway to the Platzl
... kitty-corner to My Best Friends Closet
... down the few stairs or ramp
... and through the foyer, to the left!

Happy reading
