Book sale March 26-28 at Dundee Library
The Spring Book Sale will take place from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, March 26, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday, March 27, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 28, at the Dundee Library in East Dundee.
The Friends of the Fox River Valley Public Library District will be selling newly donated materials, including hard covers, paperbacks, romance novels, audiobooks, DVDs, CDs, VHS tapes, and children's books.
During the last hour of the sale on Saturday, a grocery bag filled with books will be only $3.
The sale is held in the lower level meeting room of the Dundee Library at 555 Barrington Ave. (Route 68) in East Dundee.
The Friends will give away one free paperback book for every nonperishable item donated at the book sale. Food donations will be given to the FISH Food Pantry in Carpentersville.
The Friends raise money to supplement needs that are not covered in the library's yearly operating budget.
Over the years, they have funded the purchase of computers and software, audiobooks, Spanish language materials, and library tours for every second grade class in our district. Most recently, the Friends donated money to purchase a 3D printer for the library.
The district serves 70,000 residents of Carpentersville, East Dundee, West Dundee, Sleepy Hollow, Gilberts, and parts of Algonquin. Visit frvpld.info for more information.
