2013 Railroad Days book sale redux

By all indications, our book sale at this year’s Railroad Days was a resounding success. We had a good, steady stream of customers on both days (the weather helped) and may have had our most successful book sale ever.

If you donated books to the sale…

If you purchased books at our sale…

And especially if you volunteered to work at our sale…

Thank you for supporting the Friends of the Brunswick Library and, by extension, the Brunswick Library itself.

See you next year!

(p.s., We now have some long-term storage and can now take book donations all year long.)
