Submitted By Dave DiBraccio

Posted: July 6, 2009

The 2009 Friends of the Brookfield Public Library Used Book Sale is just around the corner. The Friends are still collecting books, CD’s, DVD’s, VHS tapes, and books-on-tape. Items may be dropped off at the circulation desk, or call for a pick-up (Dave at 262.786.6059).

Also needed are helpers for Sale set-up on Fridays and Sale days on Saturday. We have set-up on Fridays August 7, 14, 21, and 28 from 4pm- 6pm. We have to put up tables, signs, and move boxes of books. We are required to set up each Fri. and take-down after the sale on Sat. The Sale dates are Saturdays August 8, 15, 22, and 29, from 7:30 am- 12:30pm in the Brookfield City Hall Senior Center (entrance is adjacent to the farmer's market). We need cashiers and book sorters. If you would like to volunteer for a couple of hours, email Dave at ddibraccio@att.net
