Friends Of The Library Book Sale

Friends of the Library WILL BE holding their annual book sale this year. Because we weren't removing books from the collection or taking donations during our construction, we expect the book sale to be a bit smaller this year and so our sale time will be shortened. The sale will start for everyone on September 7th and run through Peach Days, September 11th, during library hours. We will have the bag sale on Saturday as that is always a big success with people attending the festivities in the courtyard.

We would still like to encourage membership in our Friends organization even though we won't be having the special presale for Friends members only. Officers of the Friends organization are planning a Friends Only program in October where members will be entertained and be able to browse a special collection of sale books held aside just for them. These will the newest and the nicest books we are able to find from our donated and weeded books.

Put the dates on your calendar and come to the book sale!

No Peach Days Book Sale

Construction still hasn't started on the library for the earthquake retrofit, but we held our book sale early this year thinking we'd be in a big mess by Peach Days. We have accumulated a few books since the sale in May, but not enough to have another big sale. If you come looking for our book sale during Peach Days, we'll just have books on our normal sale shelves in the main part of the library. Hopefully, we'll be back up and running next year with another huge sale. From the few tidbits we've been given, construction on the library should start soon after Peach Days this year.

Book Sale!

Peach Days is coming early this year. In order to have our book sale going for awhile and finish on Peach Days, we are starting the sale NEXT MONDAY. Our sale usually starts on a Thursday but we're a little short on time this year so we're starting our "Friends Only" sale on Monday at 7 pm. We hope we get the same good turnout on a Monday that we have had on Thursdays - we'll just have to see how it goes. Having our bag sale on Peach Days is a great way to finish up the sale with a big bang!



The benefits of joining FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY for the sale on Monday, is that you get first pick of our sale. You'll get to see the books that are in the best condition, the most popular titles, all the books on tape or cd, and videos. You could wait until the next day and come to the book sale without the membership, but you won't get the selection you get that first night. Many of our books on cd and videos are purchased that first night.



We'll also be accepting any book donations you'd like to make to the library at any point during the sale. We've got room now, so bring in those donations! You can join Friends of the Library at any time - even the night of the sale. Hope to see you there!
