2024 BOOK SALES

Sponsored and staffed by The Friends of the Milwaukee Public Library volunteers, the very popular quarterly Book Sales feature thousands of books marked down to bargain prices. The book sales are always an exciting event typified by the—ahem—enthusiasm of the participants!

Cold weather is not that far away, so get ready to Warm up with a NEW Book at the Winter 2024 Friends of MPL Kids’ NEW Book Sale. Need a gift for a child with a winter birthday? Looking for new books for a classroom? Want to stock up on books for the kids in your life to read during the snowy winter days to come? This is your once-a-year opportunity to purchase brand new books for pre-readers, young readers, tweens and teens while supporting programming at MPL and the branch libraries.

The one-day sale will be held on Saturday, November 23 from 9am-4pm in the Rotary Community Room on the first floor at Central Library.

Most of the NEW books will be $2-$6. In addition, check out the $1 bargain corner of new kids’ paperback books.

There will also be hundreds of used winter-holiday-themed fiction and nonfiction, for kids and adults.

And don’t forget to stop by The Bookseller across the hall from the Rotary Community Room for more books, media and magazines, Little Free Library boxes, grab bags and more.
