HUGE WINTER BOOK SALE

The Friends of the Marathon County Public Library and holding another huge book sale this upcoming weekend. Again, the group has at least 30,000 books, VHS tapes, DVDs, CDs, puzzles, and even 33 1/3 LP Records. There is also a "free" section of perhaps another 5,000 books which features textbooks, lawbooks, Reader's Digests, etc. There's a lot of reading material here, folks!

The schedule of the sale is as follows:

• THURSDAY - 2/1 - (Members only) 5:00 - 8:00 PM
• FRIDAY - 2/2 - 9:30 AM - 4:30 PM
• SATURDAY - 2/3 - 9:30 AM - 4:30 PM
• SUNDAY - 2/4 - Special Bag Sale ($5/bag) 1:00 - 4:00 PM

Virtually all items are priced at $.50 (Yes - that's 50 cents!). There are a few items, such as rare books, first editions, etc. that carry special pricing. Although the Library parking lot is small, there is parking across the street in the ramp, and one block away at the mall. We will have people there who will transport your books to your car.

If you are not currently a member of the Friends of Marathon County Public Library or need to renew your membership you may apply at your local branch or at the main library, OR you can sign up at the door, when you come to the sale.

"We would really like to move a lot of books. Not only because we want to generate income so the Friends can perform services for the Library, but also because we have more books in a storeroom that there was not room to put in the sale room. We need to sell books!" - Ken Srozinski Book Sale Chairman
