The Friends of the Romeo District Library has operated a used book store inside of the Kezar Branch, 107 Church St., for many years with proceeds going to library programming, amenities for the library and funding for scholarships for library science students. “Funds raised at the book sale (are) used to offer services and programs to the library’s patrons”, Heldebrandt said.
