The meeting room is where you'll find sorted fiction hardcovers and trade and mass market paperbacks. Fiction is sorted by genre - mystery, fantasy, historical fiction, etc - and then arranged in alphabetical order by author. We have a very large collection of classics. Fiction by really popular authors can often be found in boxes on the floor with each box limited to one writer and clearly labelled.
In the back room are children's books and non-fiction. Children's books have been cleaned and arranged by age appropriateness, picture books, chapter books, etc. You could pay $10-$20 for a new children's book; you'll get them here - gently used - for $.50-$1.00 and many are gift quality.
Also in the back room, you'll find non-fiction for every interest: biography, art, philosophy, science.
If you like really old books, check out our vintage children and adult books. Some are ex-library, so they have library markings on them, and some are rebound. We're featuring a special book: an autobiography by P.T. Barnum. Because of the book's age, we're keeping it behind the cashier's desk. Ask to see it. It sells for $50.
Crafters will find a nice selection of quilting, knitting, needlework, and an interesting selection of books about creating paper art: altered books, collage, bullet journal techniques, etc. Crafts and home improvement are in the meeting room.
Our volunteers work hard all year, cleaning and sorting books. You'll rarely find one that's damaged or soiled. The sale is easy to shop because tables and shelves are clearly labelled. If you can't find something, ask one of our volunteers. We'll be wearing name tags.
