Used Book Sale Opens Feb. 13 at Temple Public Library

The 5th annual Mid-Winter Used Book Sale will be held Feb. 13-16 at the Temple Public Library.

Thousands of books presorted into more than 90 categories are offered in a comfortable, roomy setting at the annual event sponsored by the Friends of the Temple Public Library. About 90 percent of the books are donated by the community and are of very good quality.

All types of paperbacks and hardback books have been donated for the sale, and most books will be sold for $2 or less. Some current bestsellers, vintage books, and other specialty books will be priced slightly higher.

Fiction, non-fiction, children's books, cookbooks, biographies, mysteries, romance novels, art books, sports books, and computer books will be available.

The public sale Feb. 13-16 will be held in the McLane Room on the third floor of the Temple Public Library located at 100 W. Adams Ave. in downtown Temple. Shopping hours will be 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Friends members will have an advance opportunity to shop at the Members’ Night sale from 5 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 12. Memberships will be available at the door.

For more than 25 years, the Friends organization has held used book sales as a major fund raising project with proceeds going back to the library. Most of the books sold are donations from book lovers.
