About the Sale

Our 38th Annual Fall Sale will open from 6-9 pm on October 28, 2011 to a members-only crowd. That’s a good reason for non-members to arrive with their membership fees in hand! The remaining three days of the sale will be open to all. Monday’s sale prices will be discounted 50%, so come back for those items you by-passed the first visit. Proceeds of the sale directly support the Multnomah County Library system.
