The Friends of Bloomfield Township Public Library will hold their Second Saturday Book Sale Saturday, January 11 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Friends members may shop the sale early from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., and memberships can be purchased at the door on the day of the sale.
The sale takes place on the lower level of the Library and includes thousands of books and audiovisual materials for all ages and interests, conveniently sorted into more than 50 categories. The highlights of this sale include books and magazines on cars and motorcycles – models, racing, and drivers. They come from a large collection and are both current and vintage. There will also be a mini-feature on re-imagining your nest – decorating, woodworking, and DIY. The sale always includes a wide array of subjects, and a room dedicated to music and film.
Debit cards can be used for any amount, and credit card purchases may be used with a $5 minimum purchase.
The Library Shop, located just inside the Library, remains open during Library hours, and offers a selection of gently used books, movies, and music, as well as cards and gifts. The Friends are also continuing to accept donations of books and media in good condition. Visit the Friends of the Library webpage for more information.
Since 1995, purchases made at the Second Saturday Sales have allowed the Friends to donate over $1.85 million dollars to support the Library beyond their operating budget, donating over $105,000 last year alone. Donations have paid for artwork and sculptures around the Library, the beautiful gardens, programs and events for adults and children, and additions to Library collections.
