🚨 Labor Day Weekend Alert! πŸš¨

Hey, Friends! πŸ“š Just a quick note that both the Troy Public Library and our Book Shops will be taking a short break from August 31 – September 2 in observance of Labor Day.  We hope you enjoy the long weekend and stay safe! πŸŽ‰

Meanwhile, a heartfelt thanks to the entire Friends team! πŸ™Œ  As an all-volunteer nonprofit, your dedication and hard work are the backbone of everything we do.  From sorting donations to stocking shelves to ringing up sales, your efforts make all the difference. We appreciate you more than words from Generative AI can ever express! πŸ˜

As you relax over the long weekend, take a moment to browse through your home library and other media items.  If you come across any gently-used books, magazines, CDs, DVDs, games, or puzzles that need a new home, please consider donating them to the Friends of the Troy Public Library for resale.  It’s those donations that keep our organization in business!

The Upper Level Book Shop will reopen on Tuesday, September 3, depending on staffing, and the Lower Level will be back on Saturday, September 7 at 10 AM sharp. β°

And let’s not forget to cheer on our university gridiron heroes as college football kicks off! πŸˆ  Whether you’re chanting β€œGo Green – Go White!” πŸ’šπŸ€ for the Michigan State Spartans or β€œGo Blue!” πŸ’™πŸ’› for the defending National Champion Michigan Wolverines, let’s rally for unforgettable 2024 season openers in East Lansing and Ann Arbor!
