HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — The Friends of the Library will conduct a two-day used book sale at the Cabell County Public Library on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 5 and 6.

The sale will be located on the fourth floor of the downtown library at 455 Ninth St. Sale hours each day will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The sale will feature gently used books, magazines, records and tapes, CDs and DVDs. Shoppers who purchase $20 worth of books will earn a “ Book Buck,” a coupon worth $1 at the group’s next sale in February.

Proceeds from the sale, one of three conducted by the Friends of the Library each year, will be used to improve library services and facilities. Information on the book sale or on joining the Friends may be had by calling the library at (304) 528-5700 or logging on to its Web site at www.cabell.lib.wv.us.
