Booksale

We are funded by annual dues paid by our members and by proceeds from our book sales both in person and online through our Amazon Store. Our most recent large sale was in February of 2023 at the OKC Fairgrounds and featured two rooms of thousands of books, most priced beginning at $2 each. Members of the Friends of the Metropolitan Library System receive exclusive priority shopping before the large sale opens to the public.

When is the next Booksale?

We will return to the Fairgrounds in February of 2024 with our general inventory and more Better Books.

Can't wait for our next sale?

Shop now online at our Amazon Storefront.

Love of books and reading inspired my volunteering with Friends, but making sure others have the opportunity to have a book of their own is why I help at both the sort site and sale.

I absolutely love reading, books and the library, and the Friends of the Library is the best place to (give/show) my support.

This has been so fun. It makes you feel young to be out here volunteering. It's very inspiring! I feel like I can do this for a long time!
