Friends of Calvert Library Annual Meeting and Super Sidewalk Sale

 

Each year Friends of Calvert Library host an annual meeting to elect officers and conduct other official business.  This year they have a special treat in store.  Attendees will participate in the brief meeting complete with refreshments and then there will be a tour of the library to include the behind-the-scenes component.  Additionally, the Friends will make a donation to the Calvert Library Foundation so that a brick will be placed in one attendee’s honor on the library patio of engraved bricks.  This event is scheduled for Wednesday, September 12 at 7pm at Calvert Library Prince Frederick. 

 

And by popular demand, Friends of Calvert Library will host another September Sidewalk Sale with thousands of used books, videos, music and more.  Some of these books are so gently used that you cannot tell that someone has loved them before.  These book sales provide funds that support the library with extras like the national-level speakers who presented during the Lincoln exhibition, books for children’s book discussions, supplies for the children’s events, prizes for Summer Reading, pizza at teen events, appreciation luncheon for library volunteers, snacks for the Teen Advisory Program and more. 

 

Help us spin gold out of this lovely stock by coming to the Friends of Calvert Library Super Sidewalk Used Book Sale on Saturday, September 15, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Calvert Library Prince Frederick (850 Costley Way).  Buy from the fantastic selection of gently used books – fiction, non-fiction and videos. Great opportunity for early holiday bargain shopping!  For more information, call Robyn Truslow at 410-535-0291.
