FRIENDS The Friends exist to help Palm Springs Public Library staff provide world-class service to the community. Membership in the Friends tangibly assists our improvement efforts. Thank you to our Friends members in helping to make the HOT OFF THE PRESS program possible. | HOT OFF THE PRESS Hot off the Press is the Library’s collection of current popular and bestselling books. Because these titles often have long waiting lists due to their popularity, the Friends provides funding to purchase multiple copies. You can access this collection both in hard copy format by calling the Library at 760-322 READ (7323) or by downloading a digital copy. Thank you to our Friends members in helping to make this program possible. Our Librarian Scott Biegen can be seen unpacking the latest shipment of Hot off the Press books in this short YouTube video. |
