Books are Back at Weaver Library Farmers Market

A pop-up book sale will again be featured at the Weaver Library Farmers Market this year. Members of the Friends of the East Providence Public Library will offer a mini book sale each week at the market which is scheduled for Thursday afternoons from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. for twelve weeks, from June 24 to September 9.

Due to Covid-19 guidelines, the volunteer group has been unable to host their semi-annual community book sales that were scheduled for April and October 2020 and April 2021. This summer-long outdoor event will allow the Friends to provide a variety of book selections for all ages and interests. Hard and soft cover books will be available for $1 and children’s and young adult books will be $.50 each. All children are welcome to choose a free soft cover book to take home.

Proceeds from the book sale benefit library programs, including museum passes, special concerts and events.
