A large selection of books for kids will be for sale along with best sellers, mysteries, romances and westerns. Non-fiction selections will include cookbooks, biographies, history, inspiration, travel and more. On Friday, we will have a Friends of the Library member preview night from 5:00-7:30 PM. Friends of the Library members will get a chance to peruse and purchase books and other items before the general public. This is for Friends members who have paid their dues in the last year; people can also become a member of the Friends of the Library the day of the sale for $10.00. Books will be sold on Saturday for $1.00 for hardcover titles and trade paperbacks and 25 cents for mass market, pocket-size paperbacks. DVDs, videos, and other media also will be available at the sale. The traditional “bag sale” will be on Sunday when a grocery bag of books will sell for just $1.00. Monday will have a $1 admission fee – take as many books as you’d like! All proceeds from the sale go to the Friends of the Marshalltown Public Library and will be used to purchase new materials of all types and for all ages.
