Library Booksale Tuesday, April 10th through Friday April 13th at noon
We've been getting a lot of questions about when the booksale will be this year. It will be April 10-13, and yes it will be spectacular! We got a lot of book donations this year and there will be a ton of great stuff available to buy. Prices will be 50 cents for a paperback and a dollar for a hardcover (unless otherwise marked). On Friday morning the price will drop to a dollar a bag, and then at noon we'll box it all up. Tuesday is for the WJU community only, Wednesday through Friday will be open to the public and booksellers.
