News From the Friends Book Shop…

     We want to thank all our wonderful “friends” who donated, sorted or purchased books over these past 10 years since we opened for business. Our Friends Book Shop will be closing temporarily for the renovation of the SFL Monell Building and Annex, which is tentatively slated to begin in early 2023 and reopen again in 2025.

Here are a few key dates to keep in mind.

June 15                   Book donations will no longer be accepted.

July   1-31             Bonanza book sale will be held – 50 % off all books!!!

Mid -August          Book Shop will cease operations until the SFL reconstruction is completed in 2025.

Please stop by the Book Shop to stock up on your summer reading while we still have an abundant supply of “gently used books”.  We appreciate your many years of support and look forward to seeing you in our new library location in 2025.  If you have questions, please email us at  friendsofsawyer@gmail.com.

Friends of Sawyer Free open mini Book Nook at library

Are you looking for some books to get you through the winter season, a holiday cookbook or maybe a gift?  The Friends of the Sawyer Free Library are here for you! While our Book Shop is temporarily closed, we have our new mini “Book Nook” with a smaller selection of gently used fiction and audio books as well as DVDs. The “Book Nook” is located to the left of the main desk. Come in and browse our selections at your convenience. All proceeds are used to benefit the Sawyer Free Library. Thank you for your continued support and have a joyous and safe holiday season.
