Purchase Books for the NAGLY Youth Library

We've created a book-specific wishlist for the  NAGLY Youth Library on Bookshop.org. The list is a way for people to purchase a book for NAGLY and support local, independent bookstores.  Click below to see the list and make purchase for the NAGLY library.

 

Bookshop.org works very similar to Amazon. People can view the wishlist, choose books they wish to buy for NAGLY, purchase said books through the website, and then the website sends the books to us while benefiting a local bookstore.  Our librarian has chosen Whitelam Books because they have previously gifted NAGLY with a very generous gift card and continue to offer us discounts for items.
