Library seeks volunteers for 2021 book sale |
Do you have books or DVDs you’d like to donate for the Holland Free Public Library’s second annual book sale?
In advance of its Oct. 23-24 sale, small donations (one or two boxes per person) are being gratefully accepted at Holland Free Public Library during regular library hours through Oct. 20. (GPS address: 129 Spring Mills Rd, Milford, NJ). Large donations (three boxes or more) will be accepted on Thursday, Oct. 21, 5-7 p.m. at the back of the Holland Township Firehouse. This year’s book-sale location is the Whispering Pines banquet hall, a venue maintained by the firefighters. (GPS address: 971 Milford Warren Glen Road, Milford, NJ). Volunteers will help unload the boxes at the back of the firehouse. Especially welcome are donations of: hardcover and paperback books, children’s books, DVDs, video games, music/audio CDs, and clean paper grocery bags. It would be handy if donations were brought in boxes. “Thank you to all our neighbors who make this event possible by providing 100 percent of the items for sale,” said Holland's supervising librarian Matheson Westlake. “This is a fundraiser to help pay the operating costs of Holland Township’s public library, but more importantly the book sale is another chance to share the joy of reading.” This year’s book sale will be held rain or shine, at the Whispering Pines banquet hall, at the back of the firehouse, a spacious indoor location. Masks are encouraged. The first day, the book sale runs 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 23. Books will be offered on all subjects, arranged by genre. Most hardcover books will cost $2 each, less for paperbacks. On Sunday, Oct. 24, all items will be $5 a bag, and hours are 9 a.m.-noon. Library hours are: weekdays 9 a.m.-noon and 3-7 p.m., and Saturdays, 10 a.m.-1 p.m. |

If you're looking for a way to give back to your community, the library could use your help in the month of October 2021. Coming up on Thursday, Oct. 21, we will need help transporting donated boxes of books from the library to the Holland Twp Firehouse from 4:30-5 p.m. Plus, extra hands are needed at 5-7 p.m. to unload boxes of books as neighbors drive up with donated materials. On Friday, Oct. 22, help is needed to sort and organize books in preparation for the sale. And, on Sunday, Oct. 24, a few volunteers willing to vacuum and pack up leftovers from the sale would be greatly appreciated.
HELP NEEDED WITH PUMPKIN PAINTING SET-UP / CLEAN-UP

We are requesting assistance with the work of covering picnic tables, placing supplies where they are needed, and cleaning up afterward. The all-ages children's event is made possible through the generosity of Phillips Farm, who has agreed to supply us with pumpkins for the 2nd year in a row !
