Used Book Sale to Benefit Libraries

Time once again for one of our Clearance Sales!  


The Friends of Marin County Free Library are having another clearance sale at the Book Place!  The Winter Clearance Sale is January 25-27, and features 50% off the already-low prices on nearly everything in the store, including books, audiobooks, DVDs, and other materials.  Sale prices start at 25 cents for some children’s books, with prices throughout the store ranging from $1.00-2.00 for most books; better books, current titles and collectibles are half off the sticker price.  This three-day event is a great fundraiser for our libraries!  Because of the generous donations from our community, we need to hold these sales periodically to refresh the shelves and clean up a bit.   


Pre-selection of books prior to the start of the sale will not be permitted.  Sale hours are Friday, 10 am-7pm; Saturday, 10 am-4 pm, and Sunday, noon-4pm.   Replenishment will continue throughout the sale, so return to find more deals.  Cash and check only, please.
