The Niles District Library's Friends organization held in conjunction with "Apple Festival" a semi-annual used book and media sale in the building basement / storage areas.
This non-profit group seeks to provide funding for special projects beyond the budget and regular items/memorials that the Library uses to expand its offerings to local patrons of all ages.
The fundraiser today (10 a.m. - 3 p.m.) involved more than 10 volunteers over the five-hours and included many renewals and new memberships. I helped during the closing hour while the "Apple Festival" grand parade was finishing up 1:30 - 3:30 or so.
