Booksales in Libraries

During the year, booksales of unwanted stock are held at selected libraries. These will usually last for one month in each library and access to the sale will be available during the normal library opening hours. Please refer to our local libraries information pages for opening times and contact details.

The majority of the sales will feature books and can be any combination of adult and children's fiction and non-fiction titles. Very occasionally we may include audio-visual items (CDs, videos etc.)

Please note that it is not possible to supply listings of items being offered for sale.
