Every spring and fall, the Friends of the Multnomah County Library hold a used book sale. Books go from about 25 cents to about $3.00. They are usually in great shape and are either donated by the public or the library itself. If they are from the library, they'll have a barcode, a library sticker and a stamp inside that says "Purchased From The Multnomah County Library." I'm sure you've seen some of these in my classroom library! In fact, I think I got most of the Daughters of the Moon series at this sale in 2008!
This spring, the sale is being held at the Gresham Town Fair Shopping Center, 670 NW Eastman Parkway, Gresham, OR. I know it's a bit of a drive, but I think it's worth it. I've always bought a ton of books for only a little bit of dough.
The sale will take place on Saturday, April 10 from 11 am - 6 pm, and Sunday, April 11 from 10 am - 4pm. On Sunday, since everything will be pretty picked over, everything is half price!
I hope you can find a ride and make it to the sale. I would love to see you there.
