Friends of the Library Book Sale

Sunday, April 18, 2010 • 9 am - 4 pm

Westchester Public Library, Chesterton

Support your local library and get great books, magazines, records, toys, puzzles and AV materials at the Friends of Westchester Library Book Sale. The Public Sale is on Saturday and Sunday from 9 am - 4 pm. However, if you are a member ($5 for an individual and $10 for a family), then you can attend the Friends Only Preview Night at the beginning of the sale. You can also donate materials and volunteer to help sort the materials before the sale.

There will be thousands of books of all types sorted and spread throughout a number of rooms and hallways in the second floor of the Thomas Library, 200 West Indiana Avenue, Chesterton.

Prices for newer and special books will be individually marked. A large number of hardcover books will be sold for $1.00 each and paperbacks for $.50. Some donated records, tapes, videos, and puzzles will also be available. On Sunday, all items will be sold for $3 a bag. No electronic scanners will be allowed.

Patrons donating materials for the sale are encouraged to bring their donations to the collection box in the lobby of the Thomas Library.

The Friends are also looking for volunteers to help sort materials for the sale on Saturday at 9:00 am, and for volunteers to help staff the sale.

Proceeds from the sale are donated to the library and help fund many supplemental and special programming efforts such as film series, children’s programs, book discussions, and staff recognition events.
