In a significant update for local readers, the Friends of the New Milford Public Library have confirmed that their 2024 Annual Summer Book Sale—taking place July 11–13 at New Milford High School—will be their final sale for at least two years due to the library’s upcoming construction.
This isn’t just another seasonal clearance—it’s a community milestone and your last opportunity to stock up on affordable reads before a multi-year pause.
Official 2024 Sale Schedule (Confirmed):
- Thursday, July 11: Early Bird Hour (9–10 a.m.) – $5 admission | Free entry from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
- Friday, July 12: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
- Saturday, July 13: Final Day – 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with all books half price!
With thousands of gently used books spanning fiction, nonfiction, children’s titles, cookbooks, and more, the event offers something for every reader. The Friends’ urgent reminder? “Think ahead and STOCK up!!”—because there won’t be another sale until the library reopens post-renovation, likely in 2027.
Whether you’re building a home library, sourcing classroom materials, or hunting for summer escapism, this is your final chance for years.
