Information on Book Sale 2024

It’s time to save your books and think about helping with culling, sorting and curating! We got complimented last year on how organized are books were!

Important Dates:

Collection begins on Friday, July 5, and continues, seven days a week, through Monday, July 15.

Hours: 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.


No more than five boxes a day, please, unless you have checked in advance with the chair (Susan Millinger). Please no moldy or tattered books, no magazines or textbooks or popular self-help books.

Volunteers wanted for culling, sorting, and curating (organizing the categories into sub-categories.) Begins with collection on July 5 at 9:30 a.m., continues right up to July 23, the day before Dealers Day. There will also be several evening work sessions; these are TBA as of 3/14/2024. We’ll also have some days between the sale weekends to tidy up and recategorize as necessary. Volunteers: no need to register in advance: just come to the Fort River Elementary School Gym! No need to commit to a day or time—just work when you can, as long as you can. All book-lovers welcome! You do not need to be a League member to volunteer.

Session Chairs needed! For morning (9-11:30) or afternoon (11:30-2). Please contact Susan if you are interested. Session Chairs will have a training workshop and printed directions; a trouble-shooter will be available at every session for advice and to deal with problems. There will again be student workers available much of the time to help.
