The Friends of the Roseburg Public Library will hold its Summer Book Sale beginning on Thursday.

The event will run Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. It will be held in the Ford Room.

Library Director Kris Wiley said the sale will feature newer editions and older books in excellent condition that are suitable for giving. Wiley said hardcover books will sell for $2 each with paperbacks priced at $1. There will be a couple of bargain tables with withdrawn library books that will sell for 50 cents each. All materials will be half price on Saturday.

Proceeds raised by the Friends group benefit the library’s collections, programs and projects. Over the past year, such funding has supported author visits, the Summer Reading Program, craft supplies, and other projects.
