Call for book donations to UW Friends sale

The Friends of the UW–Madison Libraries are calling for book, CD and LP record donations to their 12th semiannual book sale to be held Wednesday-Saturday, Oct. 24-27.

Donations are tax deductible. The group expects to collect more than 14,000 books for the fund-raiser. The sale helps support an annual lecture series, special purchases for the library collections, a visiting scholar program and grants to campus libraries.

Materials may be dropped off at the Lake Street dock of Memorial Library weekdays, 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m. To arrange for pick-up, contact the Friends, (608) 265-2505, friends@library.wisc.edu.
