FRIENDS OF THE TORRANCE LIBRARY
Donate your old treasures and help the Library.
The book sales are the Friends' main source of revenue and all items sold are generously donated by the community. All your donations are appreciated; please remember that all items should be in good or gently used condition.
​
Donations to the Friends are tax deductible. Donation receipts are available at the loading dock of the main branch (entrance closest to the plunge). We cannot assign a value to your donation, but the receipt is signed and dated for your completion.
