Doors open at 9am on Friday, October 27 for the
Friends of the Library’s annual, two-week-long, gigantic fall booksale at the
Dover Public Library. Only library cardholders will be able to purchase items
on the first day of the sale so be sure to bring your Dover borrower’s card
with you on the 27th! The sale opens to non-cardholders and the general public at
9am on Saturday, October 28.
Thousands of paperbacks, hardcover books, and
media items for all ages will be available at prices from $.50 to $2.00. Many
of the sale items are books donated to the library, while others are items
discarded from the library’s collections. Booksale prices will be further reduced
on Wednesday, November 1, and during Week #2 of the booksale, November 6-12,
the remainder of the items will be sold for the bargain price of just $1.00 per
bag or boxful. Any leftover books will be given away for free beginning Monday,
November 13.
The library requests that no further book
donations be made at this time. Donations will again be accepted after November
19.
All proceeds benefit the Friends of the Library,
a 501(c)3 charitable organization which last year donated over $15,000 to the
library for museum passes, children’s and adult programs, furnishings and
equipment. Applications to join the Friends of the Library are available at the
library’s circulation desk.
Membership
is $10 annually or $7 for seniors. Friends who work at the booksale receive a
50% discount on purchases.
For more information, please call the
Circulation Desk at 603-516-6050.
