One week from today Maricopa book lovers will have the opportunity to find all types of books in various genres at bargain prices.
Friends of the Maricopa Library are sponsoring their semi-annual used book sale at Santa Rosa Elementary School (in Ranch El Dorado off Smith-Enke Road at the Province entrance). The sale begins at 8 a.m. and lasts until noon on Saturday, March 7.
Hundreds of books will be available. Looking for modern fiction, romance, mysteries or cookbooks? They will all be on sale, as well as non-fiction, how-to books, westerns, science fiction and more. Most importantly, the low, low price is $5 per grocery bag.
Children’s books will be on sale for 25 cents each. Videos, DVDs and CDs will be offered for 50 cents per item or three for $1.
In addition to selling used books, the Friends will also sell their cookbook “Home Cookin’ from Maricopa, Arizona” and the city’s definitive history book, “Reflections of a Desert Town,” by Friends member Patricia Brock.
All proceeds from the sale will go to Maricopa’s public library to support programs and to purchase materials.
