Big Book Sale 2022

Posted on February 8, 2022March 11, 2022 by kinman

The results are in: the Big Book Sale netted $22,908 for the library! 🥳 We are so grateful to our shoppers and volunteers. 🥰 Thank you for a successful sale, and we hope you all enjoy your books! 📚📚

We will be in the Solar Building this year, NOT the auditorium where we usually are. Enter the parking lot from Reservoir Rd and head towards the outdoor arena to find us.

We’ve decided to allow scanners all evening on Friday, including during the members-only time this year. Be respectful, or we’ll change our minds.

We’re looking forward to seeing everyone this year, but please remember that Benton County requires masks to be worn inside all event buildings at this time. So, we only want to see your smiling eyes this year. If you are not wearing a mask you will not be allowed into the sale. Plan ahead!📚
