Lending Library

Our members are a wealth of knowledge, and between us, we have quite an extensive collection of books that have helped us to learn along the way. Our Lending Library is available to members in good status (annual dues paid). If you see a book in the collection below, contact the owner, and make arrangements to borrow. It is up to the individual members to determine how long someone may borrow the book, as well as following up to return the book at that time. Additionally, borrowers are expected to maintain the books in good order. The Finger Lakes Photography Guild assumes no responsibility for the availability or condition of any given book.

Note: As these books are on loan, not for sale, they will show as "NOT AVAILABLE" if you put them in your "cart". Contact the owner to check availability.
