Friends Of The Library Book Sale Begins Tonight

April 23, 2010

booksale10.jpgIt’s time to stock up on summer reading material, and the Friends of the Pensacola Public Library Spring Book Sale is the place to do it at a reasonable price this weekend.

The Book Sale will be Friday through Sunday at First United Methodist Church Wright Place, 80 E. Wright Street in Pensacola, and will offer thousands of gently used hardcover and paperback books, CDs and DVDs. Most range in price from 25 cents to $3. It also will feature a “Collectors’ Corner” and silent auction to showcase the more valuable books, Chairwoman Meredith McCarthy said.

The preview sale will be from 4:00 until 8:00 tonight for members. Non-members can attend for a $5 admission fee. Non-members can join with their admission fee going toward their membership fee.

On Saturday, hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday, hours are noon to 3 p.m. No admission is charged those days. On Sunday, a bag of books can be purchased for $5.

All proceeds from the sale go to support the West Florida Public Library system.

For more details, call McCarthy at (850) 341-1434.
