With the age of "" upon us, "hard copy" enthusiasts are now scooping up print versions of their favorite bestsellers, "classics" and other special titles, simply for the pleasure of having them in book form.
And library book sales — including the upcoming Book Sale, presented by the Friends of the Norwalk Public Library System — are one place to find books and other items topically-aligned with your interests for cheap... or better yet free.
The annual book sale, which raises money for library programs, is scheduled for April 28 through May 1 — plus there will be a special children's book sale on April 26 — at the main library located at 1 Belden Avenue.
As per a press release, the special children's book sale will be held from 3 to 7 p.m., Thursday, April 26. Only children's books will be available for sale. There will also be a selection of DVDs for sale.
Hours of operation for the book sale are as follows:
