Walnut West Library Friends are holding the annual “Huge Holiday Book Sale” at the library located at 40th and Walnut on Tuesday, Dec. 5, noon to 7 p.m. and Wednesday, Dec. 6, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

At the sale, you will find the library’s best donated books, barely used, for all ages and interests, and priced from $1 to $3, with a few as low as $0.50.

Proceeds from this event help pay for programs, supplies and furniture at the library.

Last year’s book sale funds went toward purchasing 10 comfortable desk chairs for the hardworking library staff, a new beanbag chair in the Teen Corner, and a blowout party to launch Librarian Bruce Seibers into retirement, as well as supplies for several children’s programs.

You can find more details about the library, including events, on the Free Library of Philadelphia website, and the Friends’ Facebook page.
