The Friends of the Library groups for three branch libraries are exhibiting art work by local, up-and-coming artist within their branches. These Gallery Walls offer the opportunity for the artists to place their work for public view and sale, and the Friends receive a portion of the proceeds of any sale.

How Do We Raise Funds?

In additional to funds raised through annual membership dues, we also have several ways to raise funds that go to the support of the Mammoth Lakes Branch Library. These include:

• Operate a used book store, inside the Library.

MINI BOOK CHALET  -- OPEN INSIDE THE LIBRARY

 There is a good selection of  quality used books at low prices. Open all Library hours. 

• Hold raffles, auctions, and other fundraisers.

UPDATE FALL 2023: ZIP BOOKS ARE BACK! See the details below to learn how to use the program

Thanks to the California State Library, we able to continue requesting books through the Zipbook program. The Zipbook program is grant funded purchasing through Amazon.com

Registered patrons in good standing may request tangible books or audiobooks (no e-books). Requested items will be shipped directly to you from Amazon.com. When you are done with the book, please return it to your local branch through the book drop!

There is a two-tier expenditure cap of $75 pre-tax for audiobooks and foreign-language books, and $50 pre-tax for all other books. You may order 1 item at any one time with a limit of 1 order per month.   DVDs, Music CDs, e-Books, e-Audiobooks and other non-book materials are not eligible for this program.

When submitting a request, you must include a valid Amazon mailing address:

• • If you have home USPS delivery: land address
  • If you do NOT have USPS delivery: land address AND PO Box
  • Phone number

Vintage Books Subcommittee

The Vintage Books Subcommittee sells donated used books that are more valuable than our regular bargain-basement book sale prices, due to age, first edition status, signatures of authors, or other collectible characteristics. This committee of volunteers researches, evaluates, and prices these books for the Mini Book Chalet (our books sales inside the library). Volunteers must be computer literate with access to a computer (library computers are available as is one-on-one training).
