Friends Of The Library Books Sale Continues
April 25, 2014
The Friends of West Florida Public Library will hold its Big Spring Book Sale and Silent Auction this weekend at the Main Library at 239 North Spring Street.
Thousands of hardcover, paperback, and collectible books will be available for purchase, plus a variety of DVDs, CDs, puzzles, and other items. All profits are used to fund programs and enhancements at WFPL branches.
On Saturday, the Book Sale will be open from 9 a.m until 5 p.m., with free admission for all shoppers and reduced prices.
Sunday is the final day of the Book Sale, with free admission and the popular $5 Bag Sale from noon to 3 p.m.
Book Sale items include thousands of generous donations from the public and some library books retired from circulation, many of them now out-of-print. Novels and mysteries are sorted by author or into genres like science fiction and westerns. Other book categories include arts and entertainment, children’s, cookbooks, history, holidays, home and hobbies, literature, foreign language, military, modern living, nature and gardening, religion, science, sports, technical, and travel. Most prices range from $0.50 for paperbacks to $2 for hardcover. There are also recorded books, magazines, and other media for sale.
The Collector’s Corner will feature an assortment of signed books, pre-1950s books, books by local and Florida authors, and other special books that are great for gifts. These items are priced as marked and must be checked out separately.
Payment by cash or check is preferred. Credit cards are accepted for sales of $20 or more.
