Keep in mind the first sale only takes credit cards which means no cash.

The third sale takes place on Saturday, September 23rd at the Beacon Hill Branch. At the second sale you’ll also be able to purchase literary gifts.

Both sales feature books ranging in price from $2-$4 with reads for people of all ages. If you happen to have an overflowing personal library the first will also accept up to three boxes of re-sellable books.

Happy reading!
