The Friends of the Albany County public library is hosting a holiday book sale from December 6-9, 2025. December 6 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm is for Friends members only. You can join Friends at the door or online before the sale if you want to shop this dedicated time. The sale is open to the public on December 6 from 2:00 pm to 5:30 pm and Sunday through Tuesday (December 7-9) from 10:00 am to 5:30 pm. Monday is 1/2 price day, and Tuesday is bag day. On Tuesday, you can use your own reusable grocery bag-sized bags or get one or more at the door before you shop. One bag is $7, but if you purchase 2 or more bags, they are $5 each. Everything remaining on the shelves on Tuesday is available for the bag day sale! All proceeds from our sales go to support the Albany County Public Library collections.
