Holiday Basket/Book Sale
Just before each holiday gift giving season, the Friends provide theme gift baskets with books and related items, as well as book collections, autographed editions, classic old books, recently copyrighted newer used books and comic books. All of the books are donated by the public throughout the year, while the Friends volunteers add related items, assemble and gift wrap the baskets. We have something for everyone! The 2019 sale will begin Saturday, November 16, in conjunction with the annual Germantown Christmas Festival.
