Annual Fall Book Sale

The Fall Book Sale was a resounding success!! ​

 

The Circle of Giving

New homes were found for so many books! 

Patrons of all ages attended and discovered treasures - teachers, grandparents, non-profit community groups, and people from all over RI.

We often overhear people who attend the sale with a book subject in mind, and walk out with armfuls of books in all genres!

"I came in to browse and found books on poetry, philosophy, and Opera CDs."

 

The circle of donated books, gratefully received and offered for sale, ensures patrons leave with great finds. The proceeds from these sales support our Library's programs, benefitting the whole community!
