The Friends of the Oakhurst Public Library are sponsoring a Book Sale that will take place this weekend, April 19 and 20. Proceeds will benefit the library expansion project.

Our public library system is an amazing gift that our forebears gave us. In the early days of our country there was debate over whether or not to have this system. At that time, some people in Europe and America belonged to libraries by subscription, meaning they had to pay for the privilege of borrowing books.

If you are a bibliophile, you will not want to miss this sale. It is a great opportunity to pick up some books for your own collection and to help out the Oakhurst library. You’ll get books and the library gets the resources it needs to continue as a source of learning and recreation for the community. Some of the books that will be available for purchase are actually out of print, so this is a chance to get books that will be hard to find elsewhere. There will be classic literature, children’s books, travel books and arts and crafts books among the items for sale. Call 658-5639 or 683-3562 for more details.
