Friends of the Library Used Book Sale, November 10 – November 12
Ripon, WI – The Friends of the Ripon Public Library will hold its semi-annual used book sale from November 10 – November 12 in the basement of the library at 120 Jefferson Street. Thousands of books have been donated recently and those in the Last Chance Room are priced at 50 cents and as low as 10 cents for children’s books. Featured displays include Star Trek, Edgar Allan Poe, beading and jewelry making, large print, and coffee table books, as well as jigsaw puzzles. Last Chance cookbooks are 5/$1 and paperbacks are a quarter. Expanded Showroom sections include military memoirs, true adventure titles, Christian, clean reads, and women of the west. There is also a Christmas display plus many Christmas and Hanukkah books for children. Cash and checks will be accepted along with credit cards for purchases over $10. The mission of the Friends is to promote and support public resources and community programs at the Ripon Public Library and proceeds from the sale are used to support this mission. In the past year the Friends have assisted with funding the digital hoopla service, summer reading programs for all ages, monthly take and make kits, support of the renovation project, and more.

The Friends of the Library semi-annual used book sale continues with a $3 grocery bag sale in the Last Chance Room – the Showroom is excluded from the bag sale. This is your last chance to stock up until the next sale! Because of the large volume of book donations received throughout the year, many of the books which don't sell will be recycled after the sale and will not be here again.
