The sale will be open to the public from 10 a.m. to noon. Members of Friends of the Library are invited to take advantage of early access to the sale from 9 to 10 a.m.

With that in mind, the number of patrons allowed in the sale room will be limited to eight at any given time and attendees might be asked to wait for a brief time before being allowed in the room.
There will be chairs in the waiting room if attendees are required to wait for entry into the sale room.
Persons who would like to become a member of the Friends of the Dwight Foster Library and take advantage of the early shopping may join on site during the sale.
Another member perk on sale day is a full bag of books for $5.
Beginning in October, the Friends of the Library will be offering the book sale on a monthly basis. It will be on the second Saturday of the month with the same hours of 9 to 10 a.m. hour for members and 10 a.m. to noon for the general public. The first monthly sale will be Saturday, Oct. 9.
