Description: Proceeds from the bazaar help fund special purchases for the libraries’ collections and come from the sale of donated books, which will number more than 70,000 volumes. During the years, the Friends have raised more than $1 million for the libraries.
A silent auction will be held on a small number of highly valued collector’s books, including a 1930’s limited-edition Faulkner. The auction will be held during the hours of the sale and will conclude at 3 p.m. on Saturday.
As always, there will be about three dozen categories of books offered at the bazaar ranging from cookbooks and children’s books to religion and art. The books come in all forms and sizes, from hardback to leather bound and oversized to extremely small.
For more information or directions, call the Friends at the Book Barn at 225-578-5925.
