ABOUT OUR BOOKSTORE
Hardcover Books average $3.00.
Most Paperback Books range from 50¢ to $2.00.
No moldy or damaged items sold here!
We thoroughly clean and prepare everything for sale in our 764 square foot back room staffed with dedicated volunteers.
The majority of the financial support given by Friends of the Camarillo Library to the Camarillo Public Library comes from the sale of used books, DVDs, music CDs and audiobooks that are donated by the generous public.
Friends sell the bulk of its books in the brick-and-mortar store located on the left side of the Camarillo
Library Courtyard.
While the majority of the books in the Bookstore, regardless of subject, are priced from $0.50 to $6.00, you will occasionally come across a special find that is worth more and priced accordingly. The higher priced, in-store books are still priced below the average internet price for books in the same condition.
