This Week at Friends of Sherwood Library Bookstore

The bookstore will be open on Wednesday, 1-4 PM, and Sunday, 1-3 PM. Sherwood Regional Library is located at 2501 Sherwood Hall Lane, Alexandria, 22306.

This week the special price table and cart have been restocked with numerous unexpected surprises, including: a 2-volume set of “Brent’s Life History of North American Birds,” the “Elvis Presley Scrapbook, Solid Gold Memories,” an oversize boxed volume “20 Years of Dilbert,” and the 1954 first edition of Bruce Catton’s “A Stillness at Appomattox.”

For young readers, the table features “A Is for Abigail” and “When Washington Crossed the Delaware,” both signed by author Lynne Cheney. In the children’s room we have set aside 4 hardcover books from popular author Mo Willems, and an 18-volume paperback set of “Boxcar Children” stories. Remember, each child and teen gets a free regular priced book from our collection each time they visit.

NEW in the special price room: all books that have a “red slash” through the original price sticker are now half-off the original price every day.

The cart of recent donations to the history and biography section has again been restocked, and the table and boxes of “Coffee Table Books” are brimming over with spectacular volumes.

Our bookstore and support of the library depend on donations by members of the community. The bookstore always appreciates donations in all categories, both fiction and nonfiction, in clean, resalable condition. Please, no magazines or encyclopedias. Receipts are available for tax purposes.

Items from the ongoing book sale in the first floor hallway and in the second floor open lobby are available for purchase whenever the library is open. Help us spread the word; please forward this message to your community and neighborhood email groups.
