The annual Friends of the Library Fall Book Sale will be held at the Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., on Saturday, October 3 from 11 am to 4 pm. A members-only preview event is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 2 from 2-4 pm. Gently used fiction, non-fiction and children's books are available; as are cd's, dvd's and other specialty items. This season's book sale will feature a collection of vintage magazines and a bag sale from 3-4 pm on Saturday.
The Friends of the Library are advocates for the Racine Public Library, speaking at public budget hearings, urging adequate funding, and promoting library value to the community. Several fund-raising events are held throughout the year, including the annual Breakfast with the Authors in November. All proceeds go to fund library programs and collection materials. The Friends have provided funds for successful programs such as Preschool Storytime, Battle of the Books, and the annual Summer Reading Challenge; and for such items as computer equipment, and large print books.
The Friends of the Library are currently accepting donations of books for children and non-fiction/fiction items in good condition. Donations may be delivered to the Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., during open hours. The library is open to the public Mon-Thurs. from 9am-8pm, and Fri. & Sat. from 11am-4pm.
