Book Bazaar Starts October 12th!
Due to COVID-19 we are running our “book sale” a little differently this fall.
We are utilizing an open area of the Library (not to be held in the meeting room) and limiting selections to four (4) tables plus wall shelving/display area to help with social distancing.
There will be no media (DVDs, Records, Audiobooks), no items on the floor, and no cash register. But there will be puzzles October 19-23.
New items will fill in according to the schedule above as room allows, so if you are particularly interested in a specific genre/topic, you might want to schedule visits to the Library during the entire week to see more items.
This is a free will donation event with all proceeds going to the Library to purchase new material and help offset a 10% decrease in our materials budget for the 2020/2021 fiscal year.
All Friends of the Library (FOL) memberships have been forwarded one (1) year because our best perk is early access to our book sale events, and we were unable to have a spring book sale and this one is being conducted over an extended period of time. However, if you value your membership to the FOL, we will gladly accept your membership dues for the upcoming year.
The Book Bazaar is open during Library Hours, Monday through Friday from 9:00 am – 6:00 pm.
FOL Spring Book Sale
Due to the evolving COVID-19 Pandemic, the Friends of the Library have made the decision to CANCEL the Spring 2020 Book Sale. Our books are being sorted by Library Staff during their closure for shipment to our online resale vendor, Thrift Books. We hope to be back for our Fall 2020 Book Sale after this crisis subsides. In the meantime, practice social distancing, wash your hands, and stay healthy!
