The 70th annual BIG Book Sale raised over $130,000 for Lancaster Public Library!
Special thanks to our volunteers for their extraordinary efforts, our community partners for their invaluable support, and to YOU, dear reader, for making our sale a tremendous success.
Did you know, the BIG Book Sale 100% volunteer driven?
- For a year leading up to the sale, volunteers sort, categorize, and box up a steady stream of donated items.
- Days before the sale, volunteers load and transport thousands of boxes of items.
- Then, volunteers set up and kick off one of the largest used book sales in the country, welcoming over 10,000 shoppers.
