Friends of Sherwood Library Bookstore offers bargains and like-new books

Halloween books and many more recent arrivals now in stock

This week the Friends of Sherwood Library bookstore is open Wednesday from 1 – 4 PM, and Sunday from 1-3 PM. The library is located at 2501 Sherwood Hall Lane, Alexandria, 22306.

This week we’re featuring a small assortment of Halloween-theme children’s and sci-fi classics. We are also re-stocking the “coffee table books” with many beautiful new arrivals, and re-filling a cart full of books we have previously had special prices on. All these books will have a yellow slash on the sticker and will be half off.

PLEASE NOTE: On November 4 & 5 we will spotlight several special collections, including vintage/antiquarian/old books, and holiday craft, cooking, and fiction. Many of the holiday items are like-new children’s books. If you have any books that might fit into those categories please feel free to donate them now.
