Annual Book Sale

Annual Book Sale :

On the second weekend of June every year the Library’s Book Sale Committee holds its annual book sale. Thousands of items are donated throughout the year and include new or gently used books, videos and miscellaneous resource materials for all ages and interests. All proceeds support the children’s department of the library, whether to purchase new materials or to fund special events and programming.

The stacks, boxes and bags of donated books and materials are sorted by the Book Sale Committee, led by the Committee Chair, Gail Reisterer, throughout the year.

The book sale is held FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 2018 and SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 2018 and will conclude on MONDAY, JUNE 11, 2018 from 10a.m. until 1 p.m. when what is left is sold for only $2 a bag.

This event is held simultaneously with the Old Car Festival in Vicksburg.
