Our Annual Book Sale has become a community event which book lovers from Puget Sound put on their calendars. 2012 mark the 32nd year of this event, which takes up the entire gymnasium of the Anderson Center for literature for adults and an additional large room reserved for children’s books. This year’s Annual Book Sale runs from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m, on Saturday October 27, 2012, with a presale for members on October 26. Invariably, a block-long line forms prior to the opening, with shoppers waiting to get in at opening time for the best selection.
You will find tables of books focusing on the Pacific Northwest, home arts, travel, art and music, science fiction, classics, religion, science, history, biography, romance as well as a very large selection of mysteries and novels. Other items include CDs, DVDs, videos and talking books.
Prices are very reasonable with most items selling for a dollar. Talking books, DVDs and the art books are priced somewhat higher. For real bargain hunters, after a brief closure at 2:30 the doors reopen, with items priced at $2.00 a bag.
