Colorful, reusable bags are available to carry your books and DVDs home from the Vineyard Haven Public Library for $1; the Friends of Vineyard Haven Library sells these eco-friendly polypropylene bags featuring the library logo to help reduce the use of plastic bags by library patrons.

This year, in honor of Earth Day, the Friends are offering an additional incentive: buy a bag between April 1 and 21, and you may enter a drawing to win a limited-edition sterling silver library charm. The charms are also available for sale at the library for $74.99. The drawing will be held on Earth Day, April 22.

Sales of the bags and charms help support the library children’s programs, the summer reading program, and other Friends-sponsored events.
