The Friends of the Ferdinand Library are hosting their August 2025 Monthly Book Sale this weekend. 

The Book Sale will be held on Saturday, August 9th, from 10 AM to 1 PM, and the sale can be entered from either the library’s main floor or through the north side doors off of the Ferdinand Community Center parking lot.

This sale will feature new selections of fiction and non-fiction, young adult and children’s reads, puzzles, and returning to the sale after being previously removed, audiobooks.

Prices remain at $1 for hardbacks; $.50 for paperbacks; and children’s books and puzzles are variously priced. The friends can only accept cash or checks for purchases.

Donations of gently used books, DVDs, and puzzles are always welcome by the Friends and can be donated in a bin located at the back of the library near the basement door. They cannot accept encyclopedias, textbooks, magazines, or outdated informational books. They would also appreciate not including musty, dusty, smoky, rodent-chewed, or stained books in your donations.

Those who are members of the Friends of the Ferdinand Library will have access to the sale on Friday, August 8th, from 3:30 to 4:30 PM before Saturday’s sale. Membership pamphlets can be found at the library’s main desk, and the cost is $10 per year to join.
