Ledding Library Book Sale at Portland Waldorf School

Today’s Featured Book Event:

The Ledding Library Book Sale (Portland Waldorf School, Gymnasium, 9am-4pm): Mark your calendar now! The Ledding Library Book Sale will be held on July 10th and 11th in the gym of the Portland Waldorf School across the street from the Ledding Library in downtown Milwaukie. The sale will be held from 9 AM to 4 PM each day. As in years past, there will be great bargains on all types of books. In fact, most hardback books will cost $2.00 and paperbacks will be priced at 50¢. In addition to books, videos, records, sheet music, tapes, CDs and collectible books for sale, there will be a raffle of gift certificates and items generously donated by local businesses. Raffle tickets are $1.00 each, 6 for $5.00 and 12 for $10 – and they’re available at the Library’s Circulation Desk. The raffle drawing will take place at 3:00PM on Saturday. The Book Sale and raffle are planned and sponsored by the Friends of the Ledding Library, a nonprofit group that supports the Ledding Library. All profits made from the sale are dedicated to assisting the Ledding Library in the purchase of materials and equipment or by funding special programs. If you would like to help with the Book Sale, please give Friends President Carol Kay a call at 503-698-2762.
