IMCPL Book Sale 2/11-13/10


This weekend is the IMCPL Book Sale. They have added a new Thursday sale day. The sale will be open 2-7:30 on Thursday. I think that it would not be busy right at 2 because most people are working or at school.

Friday from 12-7:30 is the 1/2 price day and Saturday is the $5.00 a bag sale! The sale will be from 10 -4 on Saturday. Expect it to be busy in the morning!

Take your biggest bag and have some fun!



Go here for more information.

Go here for the location of the Library Service Center.

You cannot take strollers or carts into the center, so keep this in mind. I suggest taking a heavy duty canvass bag. I have a bag with wheels, that is not a "cart" so I use that when I go.

IMCPL Book Sale 2/5-7/2010






This weekend there is a Library Booksale at the Library Services Center. This is a great place to find books for yourself or your children.

I like to have books available for the kids to look at, and if I've only paid .50 or $1.00 for the book, I don't feel bad if a page or two gets ripped while they develop a love for books.



As you see, we love books!


Here is more info. about the book sale:

Where?

2450 N. Meridian St.
Indianapolis, IN 46208

First thing Saturday it is quite a crazy zoo! It thins out a bit as you get toward lunch time. Several times, I have dropped Hubby and kids off right up the street at the Children's Museum
and went down to do my looking and then come back to join them when I was finished.

1/2 Price Book Sale Today - IMCPL Library Service Center




Today there is a 1/2 Price used book sale downtown at the Library Services Center.  This is a great way to get your kids books and a great resource for homeschoolers too!  

I stocked up at this sale when my 5 year old was a baby.  He loved books, and still does, but I didn't fret too much if he tore a page in a book I had paid $.50 for!  I felt I could let him enjoy the pages and pictures and not be concerned too much if a few of the books didn't survive.

The book sale will be from 12 - 7:30.  And the Library Services Center is located at 2450 N. Meridian St.,  Indianapolis, IN 46208

You can find out more information on the IMCPL Library's website here.

If you can't make it Friday there will be a $5 a bag day on Saturday from 10 - 4.
