Everyone is required to wear a mask and maintain social distance. Hand sanitizer is provided and a clear safety barrier is between customers and the cashier.

Good morning, I am dismayed that we missed your Autumn library sale! We had been waiting for the notification email. It never came. Is there any chance that your sale prices would be extended? Our library has a low budget.

Our Holiday Book Sale will take place Nov 20 - 22 at Locust Grove. Stay tuned for details on it. Our store is open Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 10 -4. We are not advertising sales (to keep the crowd numbers down for social distancing) but we do have them. If you happen to visit right now, all fiction is on sale.

Are you presently accepting donated books?

Are you talking about the library or the book store? These are two different entities. Im not sure about library matters, but the bookstore receives books Monday thru Friday 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. The bookstore will take small book (1 or cartons) donations from noon until 4:00 PM. Tuesdays and Thursdays and 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Saturdays
