The Friends of the Dorothy Bramlage Public Library will hold its annual Fall Book Sale on Friday, November 4 and Saturday, November 5. The sale will be held during regular library hours on both days which are 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday.
The sale will feature items that have been withdrawn from the library’s collection as well as those that have been donated by members of the community. Older items, including those from the library’s collection, will be sold in the library meeting room and most will be priced at $1 per title. This will also be a BOGO (buy one, get one) sale. Like-new items in excellent to very good condition will be sold in the daily book sale area of the main room for $2 each.
Members of the friends of the library will receive a 25% discount upon presentation of their current membership card. Memberships can be purchased or renewed any time when the library is open including on the days of the sale. Current dues are $5 for senior citizens, primary, and secondary school students, $10 for all other individuals, and $20 for families and organizations.
All proceeds from the sale will go to the friends group, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. With these and the revenue from other fundraising activities, the friends make an annual donation to the library in support of its literacy-based programs including summer reading, preschool story sessions, book- and author-related events, etc.
