Friends of Essex Library Hold Spring Sale


Volunteer cashiers Debbie Barnes, Janice Atkeson, Linda Levene, and Ellie Champion.

The Friends of Essex Library hold a Spring Book Sale at the library at 33 West Avenue in Essex on Saturday and Sunday, May 16 and 17. The annual sale will provide funds for numerous special library programs and activities. Proceeds from previous sales recently enabled the Friends to purchase new sliding doors at the main entrance to the library. The sale runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on May 16 and 1 to 4 p.m. on May 17, when all items will be half-priced.

The sale includes carefully sorted books in good condition on nautical subjects, gardening, cooking, history, literature, art, travel, philosophy, science, nature, sports, self-help, foreign languages, and books in large print. There will be tables of fiction, children’s books, paperbacks, CDs, DVDs, and books on CD.

On book-sale Saturday, library materials can be checked in and out from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., but computers in the adult section will not be available for use. There will be no library services on Sunday, when all book-sale items will be half price.
