“For young readers, the sale features an entire room dedicated to children’s titles, sorted by subject and reading level. There are great resources for older students looking for classics, reference works, and language study materials,” Orr says.

For those searching for affordable gifts, the sale offers beautiful books in great condition on cooking, travel, sports, health, art, and much more. There will also be a large selection of CDs and DVDs, as well as comic books and graphic novels.

Fine art, rare books, and children’s pop-up books available for sale are displayed in the glass cases in the library lobby.

“Come early for the best selection, then come back on Sunday for half-price bargains,” Orr says.

Proceeds from the book sale support the Fairfax County Summer Reading Program, Library Foundation scholarships, the Fall for the Book Festival, and library programs at George Mason Regional Library.
