Friend’s Second story Book Shop

Our Second Story Book Shop, located upstairs of the Brentwood Library, offers a charming collection of new and gently used books, games, puzzles, and educational materials. Our volunteers take care to display current titles, holiday selections, and collections. We change inventory often so you can always find something new with us!

Enjoy Friends of the Brentwood Library Book Sales

We have quarterly pop-up sales featuring various themes

These community sales are held in the library community room to accommodate a larger selection of inventory, and customers. During these sales we offer many discounts, and a larger selection of books and puzzles.

The pop-up sales are held from time to time throughout the year and focus on selling overstocked items and books on specialized topics, such as art books, children’s books, and teacher materials. The sales are usually held on the second floor of the library.
