For many people we know, it's an annual event to be planned for and anticipated.
No, we're not tralking about birthday parties, holidays or anything along those lines, we're referring to the Peter White Public Library's Spring Used Book Sale.
Held by the Friends of the Peter White Public Library, the sale provides the library with funds to support its programs, collections; film licenses, programming supplies, book/collection funds and equipment.
There is a spring sale (March 14-16)followed by a fall event. Literally thousands of books, a great many donated, are retailed to the reading public at cut-rate prices.
Library officials try to put out a wide variety of books and other items on every conceivable topic so there is literally something for everybody in these used stacks.
In pursuit of that goal, PWPL has started accepting donations.
Accepted materials include hardcover or paperback books in good condition, commercially published music on CD, video on DVD and Blu-ray, as well as audiobooks, framed art prints and rare or local books.
Note that noncommercially published media will not be accepted.
Some of the most popular genres currently include fiction, nature and science, arts and crafts, children's and local novels and/histories.
Materials that are damaged, defaced, stained, moldy or smelly will not be accepted.
In addition, outdated materials such as cassette and VHS tapes will not be accepted.
We recommend readers search their own collections for possible donations.
It is, after all, a great cause.
