Doors open at 8:00am to Friends members and 9:00am to the general public. Shoppers may purchase Friends membership at the door for early admittance. We'll supply the bags for this 'everything must go' "Bargain Basement Blowout" sale. Customers may purchase as many bags as they wish.

I'm hoping that bookshelf carpenters and credit counselors will also be on hand. In all seriousness, the JPL is truly a great library, one which I'm proud to frequent on a regular basis.

There is nothing greater than the library booksale. Anyone who says it is not a great thing to get a box of books for $4 either hates books or hate clutter. Luckily for me, I love books AND clutter!

Pete, that sale at the Joliet Library, have you gone to it before? If so, do they have good books?

Never been to it, probably out of fear that I'd totally lose control. But I plan to attend--what's another 20 unread books, right?
