The Friends of the Oak Ridge Public Library is holding a book sale this weekend.
The Winter 2020 Book Sale runs through Sunday, March 8th in the Library Auditorium.
Besides books, jigsaw puzzles, music
compact discs, and other items will also be available. Most titles
will still be 50 cents or $1 each, the press release said. Withdrawn
library titles will be half price through Saturday.
Sale hours on
Friday, March 6th, end at 5:30 pm. You can “like” the FOL
Facebook page (www.facebook.com/foloakridge)
before the sale and come in Friday to receive a coupon for a free
regular-priced item.
Saturday’s sale begins at 10:30 am. All non-auction items will be half-price until the sale closes at 5 pm, with the Silent Auction also wrapping up at 5 pm on Saturday.
The “Buy-a-Bag-of-Books Sale” will

The
Friends of the Library (FOL) is a nonprofit organization that holds
used book sales to raise funds for the Library as well as to recycle
publications. Funds are used to support the Library’s summer
reading program for children, sponsor the FOL Book Discussion Group,
purchase supplies and publications, and provide other help requested
by the Library, the press release said. Membership forms are
available in the library lobby or at the sale.
