Book Angels
Help Buy Books For The Library
An angel is a supernatural being or spirit often depicted as benevolent who acts as a guardian spirit or a guiding influence. That’s an apt description of our Book Angels, who donate funds to help us acquire books on our library’s genealogical “wish list.”
These books have been identified by our Book Acquisition Committee, and the prices listed here are up to half off the purchase price. Some books may have already been purchased – but your donation still helps!
Your name is noted in a bookplate inside the front cover of the books you support.
