Used Book & Surplus Property Sale

crowd of people around tables with books

August 24, 2024  10:00 a.m. to 6:00p.m.

Southwest Branch (South Terrace)- 2039 W 4000 S Roy, UT 84067


The excitement of the event brings out a large crowd in the morning. We highly recommend parents with small children, the elderly, and anyone wanting a more relaxed browsing experience arrive after 1:00 p.m

Buyers should also expect a possible 40-minute wait to purchase items (cash or check accepted) between 10:00 a.m. and noon

If you are not interested in the early morning “crush,” come at 4:00 p.m. when we have our bag sale, which offers books at a rock-bottom price of $1 a bag. Bringing your own bag will help us promote sustainability.


Please note:

  • CASH OR CHECK ONLY. An AmericaFirst Credit Union ATM is located across the street from the library. Checks should be made payable to Friends of WCL.
  • Use east side parking for easy access.
  • The sale is conducted outside on the plaza and lawn. Please be prepared for hot weather and dress appropriately. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat for shade are strongly encouraged. 
  • We do not allow strollers, wagons, or large bins in the sale area. There is ample space on the lawn outside of the sale area for sorting. Please be mindful of the landscaping.
  • We do not pre-sell.
  • No electronic devices/phones for scanning purposes are allowed at the tables.

Proceeds from the sale go to support a variety of programs throughout the Weber County Library system such as Reading is FUNdamental, America Reads Challenge, and the Adult Proliteracy Literacy Tutoring Program.
