Friends of the Palo Alto Library (FOPAL) is located at Cubberley Community Center, 4000 Middlefield Rd, Palo Alto, CA 94303.

We have three sale rooms — our Main Room, Bargain Room, and Children’s Room.

FOPAL accepts the following forms of payments at our monthly sale events: cash, check, credit cards, Apple Pay, Zelle, and PayPal.


FOPAL is open for drop-off donations of up to 6 bags/boxes, most weeks on Monday-Saturday, 3-5pm at the Main Room, the portable by the tennis courts, using the Cubberley Community Center north entrance.

Donors will be greeted by a volunteer Donation Monitor and asked to place donations in FOPAL’s banker boxes and then move the books/boxes up the ramp to FOPAL’s Sorting Room. Volunteers there will help direct donors as to where to place the boxes and offer a receipt (and thanks).

We gladly accept books, commercial CDs and DVDs, games, puzzles, and software. View our full list of what we can (and cannot) accept.


Besides our monthly sales, we also sell select books and media online in our eBay store, as well as music (CDs, LPs) on Discogs
