The Friends of Starr Library host several book sales each year, during library hours on a consecutive Friday and Saturday. Sales take place in the lower level of the library, and offer a wide range of both fiction and nonfiction books, books on CD, music CDs, DVDs, and more for all ages and audiences, with proceeds going to support Starr Library and our programs. Materials can be purchased at the book sales with cash, check or credit card. To see when the next book sale is coming up, visit our online calendar.
