The event was held just outside Discoveries Library at Annapolis Mall in the Crate & Barrel Court on Saturday, October 16.
A team of 40+ volunteers stored, sorted, and transported books, set up tables and displays, ran the event, and cleaned up afterward. We sold hundreds of gently used books and held a wonderful raffle for three beautiful gift baskets.
Westfield Mall donated the use of the courtyard space and its community center for the book fair. The Discoveries branch of the library loaned us book carts for our children’s book displays and also hosted a bookmark-making craft table for children. East Coast Advertising Specialties donated the Literacy Council tote bags that were so popular that day.
Thank you to the many tutors, supporters, friends, and family members who stopped by to browse and buy our books!
Thank you, volunteers — we couldn’t have done it without you!
