There were more than just books for sale at the Friends of New Glarus Library Book Sale.
Last Sunday, September 1st, the Friends of the New Glarus library had another success with their annual book sale. It began with a large crowd at the 9:00 a.m. opening, and although that tapered off, there was a steady stream of buyers all day long.

There was a large crowd at the opening of the Book Sale on Sunday, September 1.
One man purchased a full, matched set of bound Louis L'Amour books – 115 volumes, if you're wondering – as well as others. He said he and his wife have enjoyed coming from Oak Brook, IL, for three years. Another youngster happily spent a long time browsing all the children's books before selecting an armful to take home. Another purchaser commented she enjoyed being able to buy some books and then walk across the street to the Art in the Park at the same time.
The final figures won't be known for several days, but the Friends will certainly have funds to continue supporting the library in the coming year.
