Fall Book Sale Set

The Fall Book Sale by Friends of the Grove Public Library will be held Saturday, Sept. 24, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Grove Public Library is accepting book donations now. Donations should be brought to the library as soon as possible, said Marsha Tackett, President of Friends.The sale will be held in the usual place, the parking lot of Grand Savings Bank at the corner of Main and 11th Street. All donations are screened by the library, and materials the library can use are added to the library’s collection. The same applies to materials which might be useful in the genealogical collection. Donations are a major source of new genealogical books. Hundreds of best sellers of every variety are included in the book sale offerings in spite of the screening process. Every category of material is included in the sale from books to videos. There will be a large quantity of videos in this sale, according to Marcia Austin, library manager.Hard covers and videos sell for $1. Paperbacks and children's books are 25 cents. Prices are likely to get better in the last hour of the sale."We hope everyone with books to donate will get them to the library in the coming days,” said Marsha Tackket, president of Friends.
