About 4,000 used books will be for sale. Most hardcover books will be priced at $2. Many paperbacks will be five for $1, and children's books are two to six for $1. First editions and collectable books will be for sale at higher prices. CDs and DVDs will be $1 each.
The event will be the first of four sales throughout the year. The Friends of the Kent Public Library will hold the annual Giant Book Sale at Town Hall over Memorial Day weekend.
Buyers may enter through the front library entrance or the back lobby Book Nook. The Book Cellar is in the recently renovated downstairs area of the Kent Public Library. Due to a capacity of 49 people, buyers may have to wait for entry during peak times.
An Early Bird/Dealer's Preview will take place from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday, April 17. Entrance for the preview is $10.
