CAZENOVIA — The Friends of the Cazenovia Public Library (FOL) will present its 49th Annual Summer Book Sale on Saturday, July 29, and Sunday, July 30, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The FOL will be offering over 25,000 books for sale in the Betsy Kennedy Community Room and under a tent on the library lawn.

This year’s wide-ranging book selection includes everything from fiction, mystery, and history, to homebuilding, business, cooking, children’s books and classics.

According to the FOL, the books are all in excellent condition and are sorted by genre to enhance the shopping experience.

“We have already culled through the books, recycling or donating those that aren’t good quality, so we are proud that all 25,000 are sorted and ready for new homes,” said FOL member Kristen Bosch.

Books are priced at 25 cents each or five for $1. On Sunday, shoppers can bring their own shopping bag of any size and fill it with books for $5.

“The donations are from area residents and all of the proceeds are turned over to the library to fund programs and services that fall outside of the annual budget such as many children’s programs, guest lecture series, along with improvements to the buildings and museum exhibits,” said FOL President Mark Dennis in a July 3 press release announcing the sale.

In addition to books, the sale will also feature an assortment of DVDs, CDs, records, puzzles, and games.

Carriage Barn Books will also be open throughout the sale for shoppers to peruse gently used books, DVDs, and CDs at the bookstore’s regular pricing. Located in the 19th-century barn adjacent to the library, Carriage Barn Books is operated by the FOL in support of the library.

The FOL has paused all book donations between July 1 and Aug. 7.

The Cazenovia Public Library is located at 100 Albany St., Cazenovia. For more information, contact the library at 315-655-9322 or visit cazenoviapubliclibrary.org.
