Friends of the Library Spring used book sale set for April 19-23

Spring is about to be sprung by the Friends of the Rochester Hills Public Library, this year with an international touch and a salute to the American Old West. The group’s seasonal used book sale running April 19-23 takes place at the upstairs used book sale room of the library at 500 Olde Towne Road in downtown Rochester.

What’s for sale? Chairperson Ann Gruenewald says: “Our foreign language section is overflowing, thanks to a humongous donation of books in Polish and German.”

Also in high supply “many more Western books than usual,” said Gruenewald.

Want more? Beside thousands of gently used books on many other topics, there will be DVDs, CDs, audio books, puzzles and games.

Presale opportunities for Friends members will be Wednesday April 19 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. (New member sign-ups and renewals are available at the door; see rhpl.org and click on Visit the Friends of the RHPL link at the bottom of the page for Friends membership pricing details.)

The general public access is as follows (Note sale hours differ slightly from the library’s operating hours.):

• Thursday, April 20, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
• Friday, April 21, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
