It's time once again for the Christian County Friends of the Library Fall Book Sale. Buy books and other media at bargain prices while helping the Friends support your library. The sale opens to the public at 8:30 a.m. Saturday in the Netzer Room at the Christian County Library. Friends of the Library members can attend the pre-sale, 7 to 9 p.m. Friday, for the best selection. Nonmembers can get a 2012 family membership for $5 at the door or anytime at the Christian County Library.

The public sale runs from Saturday through Oct. 20. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and noon to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday. On Friday, the sale is open from noon to 5 p.m. Most book sale items cost 50 cents to $1. On Thursday and Friday, materials are reduced to half price. On Oct. 20, attendees can fill a plastic grocery sack for $2.

Books for every age and interest, audiobooks, DVDs, VHS, magazines, puzzles and more are offered. Some items were withdrawn from the library's collection. Most materials are donated. Friends accept public donations during regular hours at the library any time except the weeks before, during or after each sale. Donations will once again be accepted after Oct. 24.

Money raised by the Friends though the book sale supports important library projects. These include the summer reading program for children and teens, programs and classes for adults, the library's participation in business expos, monthly Movie Days, outdoor plantings around the library and a staff and volunteer luncheon during National Library Week each year. The Friends of the Library also run drawings for seasonal gift baskets year-round.

Anyone who visits the library can enter to win these baskets.

Contact the Christian County Library at 417-581-2432 for more information, or visit the library online at http://christiancounty. lib.mo.us.
