The sale is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday, April 30, and Thursday, May 1; from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, May 2, as well as Saturday, May 3 (which is $5 Bag Day); and 1-3 p.m. Sunday, May 4 (which is Free Day).
“The Book Sale selection is vast and varied, the books are in great condition, and all profits support the library through program sponsorship, equipment upgrades, and other necessary financial needs,” said Marsha Luetjen, president of the Friends of the Brighton District Library. ‘Due to the hard work and creativity of our volunteers, Board of Directors, and generous donors, our storage unit has been filled. Thank you all. Now, everyone can come to the sale and enjoy perusing through thousands of neatly displayed, gently used books.”
