Babbidge Library book sale scheduled for April 29

Homer Babbidge Library will conduct a book sale on the plaza adjacent to the Thomas J. Dodd Research Center on Wednesday, April 29, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Several thousand books donated by members of the campus community and friends of the library will be available for sale. The books are either duplicates of those already owned by the library, or are works on subjects that the library does not collect.

Books offered encompass fiction, poetry, prose, spirituality, biography, philosophy, social sciences, and history. VHS videotapes and LPs will also be sold.

Those with UConn IDs will be admitted between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m.; all others will be allowed to enter after 11 a.m.

Hardcover books will be $1; paperbacks will be 50 cents. Special items will have different pricing.

Proceeds will benefit the Abbie Jean Quick Leisure Reading Collection.
