Grand Forks Public Library has a great idea
By Contributor
Have you ever gotten tired of having to bring your books back to the library? Well, the Grand Forks Public Library has solution with a permanent, ongoing book sale at the library.
Due to the volume of donations received along with the need to take older books out of the collection to make way for new ones, we have put hundreds of books at the library that you never have to return.
Books are all for sale by donation, which means it’s a steal of a deal for you! We use money earned from the book sale to make improvements to the library or to buy new books (the kind you have to return).
While you (usually) won’t find the latest books by your favourite authors, you will almost definitely find something to keep yourself entertained! Right now, we have SO many books on sale that our meeting room is also full of book sale stuff.
Come help out your library by taking some of these off of our hands (please).
