We found a great YouTube video this week: how to rock a library book sale! If you’re looking to get more out of our big monthly book sales, there are some great tips in here.
The bare-bones list is:
1. Join the Friends of the Library
2. Get to the sale early
3. Bring a tote bag full of other totes
4. Start shopping at the back of the room
5. Do two passes through the room
6. If you’re paying with cash, bring small bills (we accept credit cards, but if you are paying with cash, we really appreciate exact change)
Watch the video for more context. Plus, it’s just fun, and you can fast-forward through the sponsored content at the top.
Our next monthly book sale is on February 18 at the Central Park Library. We tentatively are scheduled for March 4 at Northside Library, but as that sale would happen outside, we’re waiting until its closer to the date to see what the weather will be like before making it official.
