Booklovers, assemble! The Rock Island Public Library’s second two-day book sale of 2024 is from 10 am to 1 pm on Friday, April 26 and Saturday, April 27. The sale occurs in the Community Room of the Rock Island Downtown Library, 401 19th Street, Rock Island.
Buyers pay by voluntary donation, unless items are otherwise marked. While the sale offers a wide array of “pay what you want” books for every age and taste, from fiction to non-fiction, children to teen titles, and cookbooks to magazines, special interest collectors may be interested in some mint-condition graphic novels/comics from Marvel and Image Comics. The special pricing table also includes some new, sealed DVDs.
Rock Island Public Library Foundation PALS volunteers run the sale, with proceeds benefitting special library programs and services. Library Foundation PALS, short for “People Advocating for Library Services,” will host additional sales on the fourth Fridays and Saturdays of July and October.
Other upcoming PALS projects include a Together We Care Dining Fundraiser co-hosted with the Friends of the Moline Library Foundation at Applebee’s on May 21, and a Spring Beautification Day around the Downtown Library on Friday, May 24. For more information about both events, check the Rock Island Library calendar.
