The Friends of the Mercer Library will sponsor a USED BOOK SALE on Tuesday August 8 from 8am-3pm. Our book sales offer great deals on books for all ages, jigsaw puzzles, DVDs, and more. The Book Sale is buy what you want and take what you want so feel free to stock up your bookshelves, early plan for holiday presents, or just take some time to browse what’s for sale.
All proceeds from the sale benefit the Friends of the Mercer Public Library who support programs, special events, materials, and new equipment and special items for the library. You can help by shopping at the sale or by donating used items for the sale — or both!
We need your donations for the sale!

While we accept small amounts of donations throughout the year, we will accept large quantities from July 28 through August 4 during normal library operations.

We love donations of good condition hardcover books, paperback books, children’s books, DVDs, and CDs. We also appreciate board games and puzzles if they are in good condition with all their pieces. We we can only accept workbooks like crossword puzzles, Sudoku, and coloring books if they are in new, unused condition.

We do not accept textbooks, encyclopedias, magazines, outdated medical or legal books, and “condensed” books. We also cannot accept any items that are moldy or water damaged, or have insect or rodent damage due to the risk of spreading those problems to other books at the library. Thank you!
