Do you love discovering unique finds and being surprised by hidden gems? If you haven’t been to a Friends of the Library book sale yet, you are missing out!
The next public sales are Saturday, April 27 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. and Sunday, April 28 from 1-3 p.m. Sales are held in the Library’s Jones Meeting Center.
The book sales will still be held in the Library’s Jones Meeting Center even though the Library is closed until Wednesday, May 1 for renovations. Customers can enter through the meeting center’s exterior doors, which are located on the side of the Library near the curbside pickup spots and outdoor book drop.
Friends Book Sale Committee Chair Kathy Hall said, “We are excited about the Library’s renovations, but we’re even more excited to announce that the book sale is still on! We have a huge selection of adult and children’s books, DVDs, CDs, and even puzzles.”
The sale features thousands of donated items. There is something for everyone’s interests–from cooking, to sports, to gardening, to music–and literary tastes– from biographies, to romance, to fantasy and science fiction.
The Friends’ sale prices are unbeatable. Paperbacks cost $1 and hardbacks cost $3; children’s picture books are 2 for $1 and children’s chapter books are $1 each. CDs are 4 for $1 and DVDs are $1 each. People can also purchase a library tote bag full of books for $25.
At the Sunday sale, you can bring and fill any size bag for only $5! Bags are also provided at the sale for those who need them.
In addition to the public Saturday and Sunday sales, Friends of the Library members are invited to a special preview sale on Friday, April 26 from 5:30-7 p.m.
The Friends of the Johnson City Public Library is a group of volunteers dedicated to the welfare and promotion of the Library. Sign up to become a Friends member online or in person at any of the book sales.
