Like books?

If you like books as much as I do (or even just if you like them at all), you might enjoy the annual used book sale at the Library. I usually leave there with multiple armloads. I get some great deals and support a good cause (the Friends of the Library) at the same time. Check it out!

Here's some more detailed info courtesy of my inbox.

Ocracoke Friends of the Library's annual USED BOOK [a.k.a. Previously
Read Books] sale will be held Saturday July 3 at the Library. The
sale begins at 8:30 AM for members of Friends and at 9 for the general
public; memberships may be purchased on-site [$5 individual, $10
family, $25 business; additional donations appreciated]. The sale ends
at 3 PM, but remaining books will be on sale for several weeks during
regular library hours [Mon.-Fri. 3-7 and Sat. 9-1].

If you have paper and hardback books, videos and CD's to donate for
the sale, please bring them to the Library, preferably during library
hours.

Ocracoke Friends of the Library provides books, subscriptions, audio
books, furnishings and other support for the children and adult
school/community library, as well as books for classrooms at Ocracoke
School, Ocracoke Child Care Center, Ocracoke Youth Center and several
community reading programs. FOL is leading an effort to enclose a
section of the screen porch to provide an additional 400+ sq/ft for
the library in the next few years.
