Friends Book Sale

            The Friends of the Calhoun County Library (FOCCL) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that sponsors and supports library book clubs, fundraisers, teen internship opportunities, and library advocacy efforts. Every Tuesday afternoon between 2:00 and 5:00, the Friends of the Calhoun County Library opens their special sales room. The Friends Room can be accessed from inside or outside of the library. You can browse through the room and pick up whatever your heart desires: hardback books, paperback books, DVDs, audiobooks, puzzles, and some other surprises. In addition, it won’t break the bank.

                        Hardback books $2 (3 for $5)

                        Paperback books $1 (7 for $5)

                        AudioVisual Materials $2 (3 for $5) *BluRay $4 (3 for $10)

                        Board Books for Babies $ .50 (5 for $2)

                        Jigsaw Puzzles $5

            With a major overhaul and reorganization last summer, there are many new titles and categories to explore. There is also an extensive selection of Christian fiction, children’s books, biographies, historical non-fiction, and even fun, gently-used jigsaw puzzles. Check out the book display in the window to see what’s new. 

            During the library’s regular business hours, there is always a little cart by the circulation desk that has books for purchase. These purchases also benefit the FOCCL. So, whenever you come in, check out the cart to see if anything sparks your fancy. You might see something you must have for your own collection!

            For information on becoming a Friend, call the Library at (803) 874-3389 for a membership form. Don’t forget to come check out the sale next Tuesday; you never know what you might come across at the Friends of the Calhoun County Library Book Sale!

            Also, please be aware that the that the Annual Friends of the Calhoun County Library Meeting on March 3 has been canceled due to uncertainty surrounding COVID.
