Behind The Scenes
Storage Space Needed

We have recently vacated the storage space provided to us by Flint Hill One, LLC, since mid 2022. We will always be grateful to their team for helping us out. If you are aware of vacant ground floor, occasionally accessible space (about 100 square feet) which could be used to store boxes and other book sale supplies, please contact us at friendsofoaktonlibrary@gmail.com.

As we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit, the donated square footage may qualify as a gift-in-kind for tax purposes for the period it is made available. THANK YOU!

* Volunteers are always welcome!
If you are interested in learning more about our work and/or would like to join our efforts to serve the library and our community please contact us at info @FriendsOfOaktonLibrary.org
