Stay cool in the midst of summer enjoying your purchases from our special sale, the theme of which is For Your Entertainment! We have pulled out all the stops with a huge selection of DVDs and CDs, selling for just 50¢ apiece. Boxed sets, many containing 4-6 discs, are only $2 per set. Many of these titles are no longer available on the retail market, so here is your opportunity to find the particular movies or music you’ve been seeking to round out your collections. The special sale items can be found at the entrance to and inside the Friends’ Book Shop throughout the month of July.
The Friends conduct ongoing sales of books, movies, puzzles and more in the Friends’ Book Shop. Located in the corridor between the Main Desk and the Children’s Room, the Friends’ Book Shop honors longtime volunteer Jean Christensen. Here you will find very reasonably-priced adult fiction, non-fiction, and AV materials, along with fiction for teens and tweens. Another bookcase just around the corner houses books for tween and teen readers, and children's books are offered for sale in a low bookcase at the entrance to the Children's Room. Sales of special themes or formats are held periodically, so visit frequently to see what's new!
The Friends greatly appreciate donations of very gently-used books, CDs, or puzzles. Current fiction, biographies, coffee table books, and topics such as history or politics are always in demand. We cannot accept textbooks, encyclopedias, VHS or cassette tapes, or anything in poor condition. Donations should be brought inside to the library's circulation desk at any time during operating hours, as books deposited in the outdoor bins go to unaffiliated for-profit agencies. Please call in advance to make arrangements for large-scale donations.
Please Note: Books left in the bins in the library parking lot are collected by outside organizations and do not benefit the library or the town of Marshfield.
