Several times a year a sale of donated used books is held in the alcove of Hewett Centre after the Sunday service. On Book Bash Sundays the books are organized by the Library Committee for sale to church goers and anyone else who happens to be present on that day. The proceeds are used to buy new books and to support the church.
Watch for notices advertising the sale and asking for donations of books.The library also welcomes donations of books any Sunday. We accept books in good condition only, without marked pages. Please, no magazines, tapes, encyclopedias, computer or business books, textbooks, or former library books.
Next Book Bash: March 18
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, the Library cannot accept any more Book Bash donations until after the next Book Bash. Our space is filled.
