Berkeley’s Favorite Quirky Book Sale

 

         The Friends of the Berkeley Public Library announce their third semi-annual Book Sale, to be held June 2, 10am-4pm at Berkeley’s Central Library, 2090 Kittredge Street.

         The Library’s meeting room will be overflowing with thousands of books, all priced at 50 cents each. Volunteers are already sorting donations and boxing books by category—Art/Music, Biographies, Children’s, Cooking, Travel, and more. There’ll also be several newer topics, based on suggestions from previous sales: African/American History, and Literary Criticism. Book buyers should also watch for Classics (Or Books You Always Meant to Read), and Quirky Books You Didn’t Know You Needed. Take home a bagful for summer reading!

         Phonograph records, CDs, DVDs, maps, ephemera, and other surprises will also be sold for the same bargain price of 50 cents. And, this being Berkeley, there’ll be a brimming “free table.” All proceeds benefit the Berkeley Public Library.

         For more information, contact Andrea Foley at 510-524-8378 or contact the Friends at berkeleylibraryfriends.org.
