Support your library
Friends of the Carmel Valley Library (CVL Friends) is a nonprofit group that raises funds for library programs. Join us in supporting the Carmel Valley Library — because a library is more than a building, it’s a portal to understanding, imagination and opportunity!
Bookstore
The Friendly Finds Bookstore has a great selection of used books donated by the community.
Most books are $1 each and all proceeds go to the library. Cash only accepted; unfortunately, we do not have the ability to provide change. The bookstore is open during library hours.
Book genres include fiction, YA, biographies, children’s, science, business and more.
Food drive — San Diego Food Bank
The Friends of the Carmel Valley Library are sponsoring a food drive for the San Diego Food Bank. Please drop off non-perishable, unexpired, unopened food to the Carmel Valley Library during regular library hours.
Thank you for helping individuals and families in need. ❤️
Programs for all ages
Oh the fun we fund! The CVL Friends support purchasing materials and supplies for a variety of staff-led library programming and special events:
- Crafts and family fun
- Summer reading
- Senior symposium
- And more!
Your donations enrich activities with everything from Lego sets to Diwali lights and Chinese lanterns.
