Due to the possibility of heavy rains, Saturday’s book sale at the library’s neighboring St. Paul Lutheran Church was pushed to Sunday. The sale will take place in the church’s parking lot from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday.
The sale began successfully on Friday night, with a second day of sales planned for Saturday for the Outdoor Book and Media Sale Bonanza.
But the threat of bad weather forced the change. The Friends of the Byram Shubert Library thanked the church for allowing them to use the outdoor parking lot again on Sunday for sale.
For safety amid the coronavirus pandemic, the book sale is entirely outdoors. Everyone in the sale area will be required to wear a mask and social distancing will be enforced. Shoppers who do not follow these rules will be asked to leave, organizers said.
The library’s twice-a-year book sale was postponed from June. The Friends of Byram Shubert Library are hoping to go ahead with another planned book sale in November.
The sale is one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for the Friends, and it allows them to hold community programs at the library throughout the year, including the new digital programs it has begun since the pandemic began.
The sale will include books for people of all ages as well as CDs, DVDs and audiobooks. The library calculated that 25,000 volumes of books will be available along with thousands of other items.
Admission to the sale is free. For $20, shoppers can fill up a box with books and other items.
