Friends of the Library Annual Book & Media Sale

When: Beginning Saturday, April 26, 2008 through Friday, May 2, 2008


Details: The Friends of the Monroe Township Library will hold its Annual Book & Media Sale April 26-May 2, where you can purchase gently used books and media at bargain prices! The book sale offers thousands of donated items sorted into fiction hardcover and paperbacks, non-fiction, children’s books, movies, music, and audiobooks. Gift books, better editions, and coffee-table books are offered at individual bargain prices.

Donation Guidelines:

Donations of clean, lightly used books and media are accepted at the main desk during Library hours. Due to limited storage space, up to two bags of donations can be accepted per visit. For a donation receipt, please leave name, address, and a count of hardcover, paperback, and media items in each bag. Donations should not be placed in the book return slots.

We regret that we cannot accept encyclopedias, Reader’s Digest Condensed Books, or textbooks. Business, health, and computer books should not be more than five years old. Media must be in working condition and cannot be taped or downloaded due to copyright laws. Children’s books, newer fiction, timely non-fiction, history and biography are especially welcome.
