Jensen Memorial Library will hold its annual Used Book Sale June 3-5 as part of Minden’s City-Wide Garage Sales event sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce.

“We are excited to once again be able to offer this sale, especially as a part of City-Wide Garage Sales which is always a great time for people to get out into the community,“ Library Director Janene Hill said.

The sale will be open during the library’s regular business hours – Thursday, June 3, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday, June 4, 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m. and Saturday, June 5, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. The bulk of the sale will take place outside (weather permitting) on the North and East sides of the library, with some items inside. Attendees are asked to enter through the northeast entrance to access indoor sale items.

“There should be something for everyone among the hundreds of books to be available,” Hill said. “Sale items include items removed from the library’s shelves and items donated by our community. We make sure every item is in acceptable condition and ready for a new home”

The sale is free-will donation with posted suggested prices. Boxes and plastic bags will be available to assist shoppers in carrying out their selections. All proceeds go toward events and classes at Jensen Memorial Library.

Should the weather not allow for outdoor sales, a reduced number of items will be available inside throughout the library.

The library does ask that all attendees follow health department guidelines and maintain appropriate social distancing. Face coverings are not required but are encouraged. Hand sanitizer will be available.
