Are you looking to find a new home for your unwanted books? It's time to donate lightly used books for The Friends of the Scarsdale Library annual blockbuster sale, which kicks off Friday, September 9, 2016 with a Members Preview Night*. Volunteers are also welcome to help sort books and organize materials throughout the summer and during the sale.

Donations will be accepted through Friday, August 26, and should be left inside the gray door to the side of the Scarsdale Library entrance, 54 Olmsted Road, at Post Road/Route22, Scarsdale, NY.

Books should be in saleable condition. Damaged, moldy or dog-chewed books cannot be accepted; nor can textbooks, encyclopedias, magazines or VCR tapes.

The Book Sale offers more than 60,000 almost-new and out-of-print books, including bestsellers, classics, biographies, fiction, parenting, cooking, art, graphic novels, humor, travel, self-help, drama, religion, philosophy, poetry, history, political science, and business.

There is also a huge selection of children's books, plus DVDs, CDs, LPs, audiobooks and sheet music; and a trove of autographed copies.

Westchester County's premier book sale will begin with a Members' Preview on Friday, September 9, from 6-9 pm. *New members may join at the door that evening for $25. The sale will run through Sunday, September 18. New books are added to the sale daily. The full schedule will appear soon on the Annual Book Sale webpage at www.scarsdalelibrary.org.
