Member-Only Preview Sales

One of the most popular perks of becoming a member! Browse our Main LIbrary book sale before it is open to the general public. These previews offer our members the opportunity to shop the sale in a less crowded environment with no scanning allowed.

Upcoming Sales

Free Admission to Book Sales

It is always free for members to attend our monthly book sales! While everyone else pays a $2 admission fee before noon, members can visit the sale anytime free of charge.
