The Friends of the J.V. Fletcher Library Inc. will be holding a book sale on Saturday, February 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, February 7 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the meeting room of the library at 50 Main Street, Westford. On Sunday all materials will be offered at half price. In addition, there will be a preview sale for Friends members only on Friday, February 5 from 7 to 9 p.m. Memberships will be available at the door.
The sale will include over 7,500 books plus CDs, audio books, DVDs and videos. Regular prices are 50 cents and up for paperbacks and $1 and up for hardcover books.
100% of the proceeds from all book sales directly benefit our library unlike other organizations collecting book donations that do not donate 100% of their proceeds.
Approximately 95% of the books offered at these sales are donated by Westford residents. As you are cleaning out your unused books after the holidays, please consider donating them to the library for the direct benefit of Westford residents. During the construction project at the rear entrance of the library, book donations may be left in the chest next to the temporary Fine Arts entrance. This box is always available to collect your donations, and tax deduction forms are available at the Main Desk. The Friends of the Library really appreciate your continued support.
