BUY A BOOK AT YOUR LIBRARY

                                                 Thomaston Public Library Bookshop

At this time of year, your local library is apt to have a used book sale in progress. Some libraries have ongoing sales such as the Thomaston Public Library’s Hall Bookshop shown here. No matter where you live, check with your library for upcoming book selling events. Check with your local schools also as they will often have children’s book fairs at this time of year. Unless you have a Kindle and download your books from the internet, used books are the biggest bargain going these days. Please take advantage of your local library and remember that you can borrow my book, The South End, at the Rockland, Thomaston, and South Thomaston libraries. It may be in other libraries too. Ask for it.

At the present time the Waldoboro Public Library has a Book Barn which is open Saturdays through October 16, from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. You can fill up a bag with books for $1. I’d call that a bargain. The money is used to support their programs throughout the year. Go grab a bunch. I’ve already got my cousin, Diane O’Connor, on the case for me. She lives over that way and promises to pick up a bag of books for me.
