Anne Arundel County Literacy Council To Hold Fundraiser Book Fair October 16

The Anne Arundel County Literacy Council (AACLC) will host a fundraiser book fair on Saturday, October 16, from 11:00am to 3:00pm.

The book fair will take place outside Discoveries: the Library at the Mall at the Crate & Barrel court in Annapolis Mall. Westfield Annapolis Mall generously donated space and marketing support for the event. Discoveries Library will feature a children’s activity and a library card sign-up booth at the book fair.

The fair will feature a range of gently used books including children’s books, cookbooks, bestsellers, romance novels, memoirs, mysteries, thrillers, historical fiction and much more. Books will be priced $2 for hardbacks and $1 for paperbacks, with bundled book offerings at special prices. Shoppers will have the option of filling a special edition Anne Arundel County Literacy Council tote bag with books for $20. PayPal, credit cards, check and cash will be accepted.

Also at the book fair: gift basket raffles and more.

The event will be entirely run by volunteers who have come together to provide services in the community and uplift those in need. Proceeds from the book fair will support the council’s free adult tutoring programs in Anne Arundel County. Sponsorships are still available — contact Jane Seiss at director@aaclc.org for more information.
