More than 5,000 books will go on sale at Warrenville Public Library next weekend when Knowledge Exchange holds a two-day used book sale at the Stafford Place building.
The sale runs Saturday, Nov. 14, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 15, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Admission is free, according to a community listing on Patch.
The selection includes adult and children's titles, graphic novels and movies. All items come from materials Knowledge Exchange recovers through partnerships with Illinois libraries, the listing states.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Warrenville Public Library District. The exact share was not specified.
Pricing
Saturday prices are $3 for adult titles and $2 for children's books and media. Sunday prices drop to $2 for adult titles and $1 for children's books and media. The sale accepts cash or card.
How Knowledge Exchange works
Knowledge Exchange partners with libraries across Illinois to collect books that would otherwise be recycled or discarded, according to the listing. The organization resells them at low-cost community sales, giving the books what it calls "a second life" with new readers.
The library is at 28W751 Stafford Pl, Warrenville, IL 60555.
