Past Events
The April 5th Patio Book Sale was a wonderful success!
Under clear blue skies, community book lovers from across Pasadena and neighboring Altadena gathered at the library for a day of community and discovery. The book sale featured a wide variety of gently used books at discounted prices, with special giveaways for our Altadena guests. Families browsed together, and many children left with smiles and spirits full of new favorite stories from our extensive children’s section. Thank you to everyone who joined us and volunteered in celebrating reading, connection, and the joy of books! ๐๐
