The annual Friends of the Library Book Sale is a significant source of funding for library programming, including programs for children and adults, museum passes and the automated museum pass system.  The Friends need your support for a successful book sale--you can show your support through donations and attendance at the booksale!

 

Book Drop-Offs are accepted at the Library during regular library hours.  The Friends seek books of all kinds in good condition including recent best sellers, fiction, non-fiction, children's books, paperbacks - as well as DVDs, CDs and recorded books on CD.  Please no encyclopedias, textbooks, or magazines.  Thank you for your support!

 

We hope to see you at the Library on Saturday, May 15th at the Annual Spring Book Sale!

BEGINNING JANUARY 1, 2010!

And, in case you are interested in attending the special Harry Potter Exhibit at the Boston Museum of Science, there is a special rate for patrons with a library pass!  The exhibit is open until February 21, 2010.  With a library pass, Harry Potter tickets are only $16 for adults, $14 for Seniors, and $13 for children ages 3-11, with a maximum of 4 tickets per pass (in addition to the $5 per person cost for the general exhibit halls). This special rate is available to the pass holders only for the date shown on the pass and tickets must be purchased in-person only, based on available tickets for that day.  [Regular Price for Harry Potter: The Exhibition is $26 for adults, $24 for seniors and $23 for children ages 3-11.]   So make your reservation for the Library Pass from the Millis Public Library and go the museum early in the day to get available tickets for the Harry Potter Exhibit!
