Langdon, March 6, 2025 – The Langdon Community Library is excited to announce the return of its Annual Used Book Sale on Saturday, April 26, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. This year, we are making exciting changes by moving the event away from its usual alignment with the Parade of Garage Sales to create a bigger, better experience for our community.

 

Date: Saturday, April 26, 2025
Time: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Location: Langdon Community Library, 344 Centre Street Langdon (in the Qualico Resource Centre in Langdon Park)

 

The sale will feature thousands of gently used books across all genres – including fiction, non-fiction, children’s books, cookbooks, and more! Whether you’re a lifelong book lover or just in the mood to find something new, there will be something for everyone. By holding the sale earlier in the year, we will also be able to offer the books for sale during our regular library hours the following week, giving even more opportunity to shop for great deals.

 

“We are thrilled to move the sale to its own dedicated weekend,” said Cori Nicholls, President of Langdon Library Society. “Not only does this new timing help us expand the event, but it also allows the sale to continue over an extended period, providing more time to shop and support our library during operating hours the following week.”

 

We are currently accepting donations of gently used books for this year’s sale.  

 

Donations will be accepted at the library during our regular open hours:

Donations will also be accepted at Connect First Credit Union during their business hours Monday - Friday 9:30am to 5pm.

 

Please do not leave books on the library deck or outside of Connect First, as unpredictable spring weather could cause damage to the books. Also, please do not placed donations in our outdoor book drop as this is only for borrowed library items.  We ask that any donated books be in good repair.  We will also accept Audiobooks and DVDs.  

We will not be accepting donations of the following:

 

We’re also seeking volunteers to help with setup, the sale day, and takedown. Volunteers will receive the perk of early shopping privileges!

 

Join us in supporting your local library, discovering great books, and helping us continue to offer valuable programs and services for our community.
