Want to add to your personal library?
On Saturday, Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. to 1 pm ET, the Apalachicola Margaret Key Public Library will open for a special “$5 Fill-A-Bag Book Sale,” sponsored by the Friends of the Library in Apalachicola, with all proceeds benefiting the library. Visitors buy a $5 bag at the door, and then fill it full by browsing shelves and tables full of like-new and gently-used books. This sale will feature a wide selection of children’s and young adult books, resources for teaching, sci-fi books, and a variety of vintage, out-of-print hardcover volumes. To learn about more events at the library, view the calendar by visiting apalachicolalibrary.com/events
