NORWAY — The Friends of Norway Memorial Library will sell used books on Saturday, June 10, 9 a.m. to 12 noon, at the Gingerbread House, 500 Main Street in Norway. This is the second of four summer pop-up book sales held on the second Saturday of the month through August. The sales are held outside and are weather-dependent.
The June sale features books about Maine or written by Maine authors. Other stock includes fiction and nonfiction for adults, teens, and children. For the July 8 sale that coincides with the Norway Arts and Music Festival, hours are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. On August 12, the final sale of the summer, shoppers may fill a bag for a donation to the Friends of the Library.
The Friends of Norway Memorial Library are volunteers whose work supports and enhances the programs and services of the Norway Memorial Library. Their annual membership drive begins in June. This year’s membership theme is “The many ways we continue to grow.” Those who join or renew before August 18, 2023, will be entered into a drawing to win a gift certificate to one of three Maine businesses, Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay, Smedberg’s Farm in Oxford, or Pietree Orchard in Sweden.
Book sale shoppers park in the public lot on Water Street and use the footbridge to the Gingerbread House. There is no parking available in the Gingerbread House driveway.
