NEW ROCHELLE, NY — Over the summer, residents brought thousands of gently used books to the Friends of the New Rochelle Public Library, whose dedicated volunteers have processed the donations and now have them ready to sell — all at very affordable prices. On Friday, September 11th and Saturday, September 12th, from 9:00 am — 3:00 pm, the public may select from a wide range of hardcover and paperback books, CDs, dvds, and more, when the Friends of NRPL’s conduct their monthly Big Book Sale. The Friends will also be holding Mini Book Sales on Saturday, September 19th and 26th and every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the month, from 11:00 am – 3:00 pm. These Mini-Sales are in place of the Friends Book Store hours. The executive board of the Friends of the Library, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, coordinates the book sales with the assistance of other Friends’ volunteers. Money realized from book sales are used to underwrite the Library’s extensive public programs. The Friends welcome prospective volunteers.
