Get Involved
Do you love KDL's
Amy Van Andel (Ada) Library
and wish you could give back?
There are many simple ways to get involved with the Friends:
Donate Gently
Used Books
Donations of gently used books and A/V materials are used to stock our used bookshop and bi-annual book sales. Simply drop off your donations in the book return or place on the Friends' donation table just inside the library.
We're so grateful for book donations!
Attend Events
& Book Sales
From Ada's Women's Nights to Farmers Markets, Friends' Fall Socials to "Gallery in the Stacks" artists' receptions, there is something for everyone.
A favorite Friends' event are the big bi-annual book sales, where kids and adults love filling a bag of books for $10!
Visit our Lucky Find Bookshop
Nestled in the gallery space on the first floor is our permanent bookshop stocked frequently with gently used and like-new books in all genres for all ages.
All books are $1-3 and all proceeds directly impact the library's programs and facilities.

What our members & volunteers are saying...
Kristi Krass, Friends Board Member since 2023
"It’s hard to imagine a more rewarding, hopeful, heart-warming cause than promoting reading and the essentiality of a local library. Joining the Friends gave me flexible options for volunteering, and the constant thrill of getting to meet book lovers of all ages out in the community and among the shelves of our used bookstore.”
