2008-2009 Bookshop Hours: Open most weekends September to May. Saturdays: 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Sundays: 1 - 4 p.m. The Bookshop is closed in the summer but donations are still accepted year round.
The Friends of the Ann Arbor District Library (FAADL) is a non-profit organization with a mission to promote knowledge of and interest in the resources of the public library, to raise funds for its services and programs, and to provide volunteer assistance as needed.
Comprised of dedicated volunteers, FAADL supports library programs such as the Summer Reading Program for young people and offers a way for the community to recycle good used books thru our Book Shop. The Book Shop is a special place where these donated items are sold at low prices, enabling the community to buy good books at a reduced price and to benefit the library at the same time. Founded in 1953, FAADL has been a strong public advocate for the library, beginning with support for the construction of the downtown building in 1957, the launching of outreach programs, and the development of the branch libraries. Our role as public "ambassadors" for the library is educational and rewarding.
