The Friends of the Verona Public Library will hold its annual December book sale from December 2 to 5, at the library.

This is the Friends’ largest book sale of the year, with 10,000 fiction and non-fiction titles for adults and children, donated over the last year by the Verona community. To make it easy to find and shop for books, fiction is sorted alphabetically by author and non-fiction is sorted by topic. Most books are priced at $1 or $2. Limited DVDs, CDs, and audiobooks will be available. Proceeds of the sale will support the library’s children’s, teen and adult programs.

The best selection of books is available when the sale opens to Friends of the Verona Public Library members in a special preview night on Thursday, December 2, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Memberships with the Friends begin at just $15. To become a member in advance of the Preview Night, go to https://www.veronalibrary.org/friends-of-the-library/. Membership forms will be available at the door and new members are welcome to sign up on December 2.

The sale will open to the general public on Friday, December 3, from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The sale continues on Saturday, December 4, from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and coincides with Verona’s annual Fair in the Square. On Sunday, December 5, from 2 to 4:30 p.m. the Friends will have a $5-a-bag sale. Bags will be supplied by the Friends. Teachers with a valid teacher ID can take advantage of additional bargains by purchasing books for only $2 per bag.

Cash and checks are accepted. Face masks are required in the Library building. Due to the town event, Library parking will be limited on Saturday but street parking will be available.
