Fort Scott Public Library

Our  used book sale will be May 4th-11th in the Children’s storyroom of the library.  Hardback books are fifty cents and paperbacks are twenty-five cents.  Anything else in the sale is $1.00. 

Starting Thursday, May 9th, people may select a bag or box of books for one dollar. The library uses the proceeds from this fundraiser to purchase new materials.  The sale is during the library’s regular hours and will shut down fifteen minutes before closing each day.  The library’s hours are Monday through Friday 9:00-6:00 and Saturday 9:00-2:00.

We now have a Facebook page.  I guess I’m supposed to beg for likes so feel free to “like” us if you want.  Our plans are to post library announcements and also information about upcoming book releases–such as the newest James Patterson on April 29th and anything else we think people might find interesting.  Here’s the link: https://www.facebook.com/FortScottPublicLibrary?ref=hl
