DOTHAN, Ala. (WTVY) - The “Friends of the Dothan-Houston County Library System” unpacked hundreds of boxes Wednesday... 806 to be exact!
Each box is full of books that will be on sale through September 25th.
Money from the book sale benefits the Houston County Library System.
It’s for new books, programs, and other things you may not think about.
“The money that is generated from this sale will go to specific requests and specific needs that the library has,” said Everlie Bolton, president of the Friends of the Library. “Which could include more books. Which could include in the past fences, and carts, and gutters, and all sorts of things that the library needs. This sale would help.”
Bolton says events like the book sale promote the Dothan Houston County Library System in the community, bringing in much-needed volunteers.
This is the Friends of the Library’s first book sale since February 2020.
