NOTE:  At 2 pm a Friends volunteer will be inside the handicapped door in the hallway to distribute numbers to form the waiting line to enter the sale at 5 pm. A membership may be bought at this time, if not already current (check or cash).  Although the library will be closed, the handicapped door down the ramp will be unlocked and rest room will be open at that time.

​One numbered ticket per person.  Kids, friends, spouses, must all be present to receive their own number.  Otherwise they will be at the end of the line upon entry. After picking up your number you have time to go have a cup of coffee, a bite to eat or a nap.  Library upstairs will not be open that Monday.

Remember:  Cash or checks only.  We do not take Credit or Debit cards.
