Book Swap

Sunday, February 5 -- 1:00-3:00 PM

Do you own books that you're not planning to re-read? Everything old is new again at the library's Book Swap! Bring up to 10 of your used books to swap with other readers. You'll be issued one "book buck" for every book you bring, plus one extra just for attending, and you can use your book bucks to "pay" for the books you decide to make yours.

Don't have any books to swap? You're still welcome to attend and select one book to keep.

Books must be in good condition. Textbooks and instruction manuals are not accepted.
