Friends Plan Gigantic Book Sale

Your next treasure might be found at this exciting event. The Friends of the Birmingham Public Library, over three hundred members strong, are sponsoring a “Gigantic Book Sale” Friday and Saturday, June 3-4, at the library’s downtown location. The sale runs from 9:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. both days.

Items featured in the sale include pieces donated from private collections covering adult and children’s fiction and non-fiction, as well as DVD’s, CD’s, audio books, and videos. And it’s all for a good cause—proceeds will go towards the purchase of materials for our Birmingham libraries.

A special preview night for Friends’ members is slated for Thursday, June 2 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. The evening will include a silent auction of interesting and unusual books. Individuals are invited to join the Friends organization with a paid membership at the door.

The Friends of the Birmingham Public Library is a structured nonprofit association of individuals providing for various special needs of the Birmingham Public Library through community-based efforts. They attend to the library's needs, generate new ideas, offer advice and encouragement, volunteer their time and energy, and secure financial support.
