Books & More at a Discount


One of the benefits of membership in the Friends of the Webster Public Library is the opportunity to order books, videos, audio compact discs, and cassettes at a discount.  Savings can be as high as 43% off the retail price.  Depending on the company that fills your order, you may also save sales tax and shipping.

Orders may be placed once a month, prior to the 15th of the month.  You may order several items at one time, with a maximum of five items in a month.  The library will place the orders on the 15th of the month (or the next work day if it falls on a weekend).  Please print out and complete the order form below.   You will need to complete an order form for each item you want.  Do not enclose payment with your order.

We will contact you when your items arrive or let you know if the items are not available.  You will receive a bill when your items are ready for pickup.  You will give your payment directly to the Accounts Clerk at the library and it will then be mailed to the vendor.  Materials cannot be picked up until a bill has been received from the vendor.


Unfortunately, we cannot definitively tell you what the item will cost ahead of time.
  Paperbacks may only be discounted 10%, while some hardcovers are discounted as much as 40% off the retail price.  In general, you’ll receive 32% off videos, 31% off CDs, and 36% off cassettes.  (Unfortunately, books-on-cassette and computer software cannot be ordered.)

Any questions, please contact a clerk in the Technical Services Department at 872-7075.
