The Friends of the Walnut Creek Library is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization dedicated to supporting and improving library services in Walnut Creek.
Location and Hours
The Friends bookstore is located at 1910 Olympic Boulevard, Suite 120
and is open:
Monday through Friday: 10 am-4 pm
Saturday: 10 am-2 pm
The bookstore observes the same holidays as the Walnut Creek Library, but does not observe the furlough days. Library holiday closings and furlough days are listed at: http://ccclib.org/aboutus/holidays.html.
Your support of the Friends bookstore will help the Friends provide funds for an opening day collection for the new downtown Walnut Creek Library, which is scheduled to open in June 2010.
