I am sharing this announcement from Dirk Kennedy, the Library’s gifts coordinator, about the next Library Booksale:
$1 BOOK SALE
Homecoming at UC Berkeley
Saturday, October 3
9am – 3pm
303 Doe Library
The 4,500+ books on the shelves of Doe 303 will be offered for sale for $1 each. Most books are fresh; that is, they have not been offered for sale in room 303 before. You will find some surprisingly attractive books in the room. I hope that many move from the Library’s shelves to yours.
The Doe Library building will open at 9am on the 3rd. The best place to wait, if you plan to arrive in advance, is at the main (North) entrance to Doe. Right at 9am I’ll walk up to 303 with those who have been waiting in line. I’ll ask that everyone maintains his or her place in the line.
Scanners are permitted for those who require an electronic second opinion. Hoarding books for subsequent leisurely review, however, is not.
