Prosper library hosting End of Summer book sale

Bookworms of all stripes are invited to take advantage of the annual End of Summer book sale at the Prosper Community Library, according to Librarian Linda Shaw.

“We’re putting out all sorts of books for sale, and avid readers can take advantage of these incredible bargains. Some civic-minded organizations may want to purchase numerous titles at these prices, and donate them to schools, retirement homes, or detention centers,” she said.

The book sale is currently taking place and will continue through Thursday, Aug. 23 during normal operating hours at the library.

Hardback books are sale priced at $1 and paperback books are $.25 or six for $1.

“If an individual or organization wants to purchase large quantities, we can certainly entertain offers,” added Shaw.

All proceeds from the sale benefit the “Teen Friends of the Prosper Community Library” and will be used for programming and activities that either benefit the Teen Friends or are sponsored by the Teen Friends benefitting other groups.
