About
The Friends of the Serra Mesa–Kearny Mesa Library is the branch's chapter of the Friends of the San Diego Public Library, a citywide 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The chapter is not its own corporation. It operates under the citywide group's tax-exempt status. Membership starts at $5 a year, and an elected board meets every other month.
Volunteers run a used-book shop in the library at 9005 Aero Drive and hold extra sales, including children's book sales. Money from sales and dues stays at the branch. It pays for books, equipment and programs such as story times and summer reading. The chapter has also sponsored art exhibits and a monthly Saturday concert.
