Free books

NORWAY – The Friends of Norway Library are holding a clearance of the leftover books from last summer’s used book sale. These are free for the taking and may be looked over in the new entrance at the side of the library. Most are adult fiction and nonfiction, paperbacks and hardcovers – there are no children’s books. They will be available through February and into March as long as supplies last.

More information may be obtained by calling library director Ann Siekman at 743-5309.
