Friends of the Library Spring Book Sale

Additional Information

The Friends of the Albany County Public Library will hold their annual spring sale Tuesday, February 27 - Saturday, March 3, 2018. The Friends of the Library sales differ from other used book sales you may have attended as items are arranged on shelves as in a regular bookstore or library. The sale includes books, art prints, vinyl, CDs, DVDs, audiobooks, and more. This allows for easy viewing, and we even provide a map of genre locations. We have a large number of classics and books in a variety of languages. Some genres have moved, so please check the map for your favorites.

The Friends of the Albany County Public Library is a non-profit organization that provides direct financial assistance to the library to assist in funding new materials. We appreciate the many generous donations from the community, as well as books removed from the county and school library collections.
