Our Public Library : Connecting to the Community
To support the library, “The Friends of the Pasquotank-Camden Library” hold two major fund raising book sales events every year, in spring and fall. At each sale, books and other items are offered to the general public. These book sales are extremely popular events and people come from all over to get great deals on books for their reading or collecting enjoyment. All proceeds from the book sales fund events and Friends’ Book Shelf in the library. Membership fees on the behalf of the library provide the small extras that local, state and federal funds cannot cover. We are proud to have had a part in making the Pasquotank-Camden Library progressive.
