Friends of the Lynnfield Library 2019 Fall Used Book Sale Remembered

The Friends owe a debt of gratitude to all of those who participate in the planning, preparing and running of the book sale. We are completely reliant on their community spirit, many talents, and significant dedication. Through fund-raisers, we enable the library to offer a wider variety of programming to the public and passes to many area museums and attractions!

We appreciate the enthusiasm of young readers who continue to attend the book sale each year. The world of books has a special kind of magic, especially for wide-eyed children. As you can see, the love of literature instilled in the kids continues through the teen years. There is always something new and engaging for every age group to delight in!

Veronica Wainwright reads “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” by Dr. Seuss to Chloe and Grayson Muller while their mom, Rebecca takes the time to browse freely at the children’s material. This newly introduced aspect of the book sale was a hit with both the adults and children.

Friends of the Lynnfield Library Fall 2018 Used Book Sale

Now that spring has arrived, the Friends of the Lynnfield Library have scheduled the seasonal book sale for Saturday, May 12 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm on the Town Common.  In case of inclement weather, the Lynnfield Library will accommodate the sale inside the building.

At this time, the Friends would like to request donations of hardcover fiction and non-fiction, small and large fiction and non-fiction paperbacks, DVDs, and all children and young adult materials.  The Friends really appreciate your choosing us to receive quality used books and media materials.  Please check that your donations do not have water damage, ripped or missing pages, mold, stains, or debris.   Furthermore, keep in mind that there are a few items the Friends cannot accept including VHS tapes, textbooks, encyclopedias, Reader’s Digest Condensed collections, magazines, games or puzzles.

Kindly bring your boxed or bagged donations to the Library Circulation Desk.  It would be most helpful for the staff if you could use boxes or bags that you can leave at the library with your donations.  Just a reminder that to provide sufficient processing time, the Library is accepting donations through the period ending one week before the sale.
