The Estevan Public Library’s book sale started a day earlier this time.  The three-day event is running on April 26-28. 

As usual, the first day of the sale turned out to be quite busy.  First buyers were waiting at the doors even before the library opened. 

About a third of books including a lot of easy reads were sold on Friday. TD donated reusable bags to make it easier to carry things purchased during the event. 

More people came in on Saturday to check great deals with magazines going for 25 cents, paperback books – for 50 cents and hardcovers - for just a $1. 

The sale will continue tomorrow when the library will offer books, CDs and DVDs for just $5 per full box. 

This traditional big sale helps to make sure that most of the books picked for the semiannual event are gone and there is room for the next one. 

Books present on the sale tables were either donated by community members or were revoked of the library collection. There were about 40-50 boxes of books available on the first day of the sale. 

Everything left after the three-day sale will be moved to one table in the back of the library and will still be available for purchase later in time.
