Friends of Towson Library Annual Book Sale Returns for 19th Year

Mark your calendars, the 19th Friends of Towson Library Annual Book Sale is coming soon.

The fundraiser, which runs from April 11-14, offers gently used donated books at low prices.

Profit from the sales will pay for events, furniture and other costs at the Towson branch of the Baltimore County Public Library, said Nora Kotula, a representative for Friends of Towson Library.

"This is the biggest fundraiser for the library," Kotula said. "Except for specialty items, most things won't be more than $5."

She added that a majority of the books would be around $2.

The fundraiser will be held at the bottom level of the Towson branch, Kotula said. There is a $10 admittance fee for those who participate on April 11 because they have first choice of selections.

The book sale runs from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. on April 11, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on April 12 and 13 and 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on April 14.

Friends of Towson Library is a volunteer organization that supports initiatives at the local branch.
