A Scholastic Book Fair is coming to The Shelby Community Library from Monday, September 24, 2012, to Saturday 29, 2012.

Here’s how the Book Fair works. You and your family are invited to come during any of our library hours. Our Book Fair hours are Monday, Tuesday & Thursday 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Wednesday 12:30 p.m. to 8 p.m., Friday 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Saturday 9:30 to 12:30 p.m. We think you’ll be happily surprised at the varied selection and reasonable prices. Besides bringing in affordable appropriate books to your community, the goal of our Book Fair is to add books to the children’s section in the Library. One way is with the Wish List, which allows you to donate books to your library or child’s class room in your family’s name. Be sure to look for the Wish List display when you arrive. For your convenience, our Book Fair accepts credit cards! Discover, Visa, Master Card and American Express. If for some reason you can’t make it or you want to continue shopping from an expanded selection, you can now visit the Fair online – www.scholastic.com/schoolbookfairs.
The online Fair:
• Is available for an extended time and all orders ship FREE to school
• Offers an expanded book selection for all ages from preschool to adult.

All in school and online Book Fair purchases benefit our school and library.
See you at the Book Fair!
