Rockcliffe Park Spring Book Sale returns to form

It takes a crew of dedicated, tireless volunteers, both on sale days and in the months preceding, to produce a successful book sale. Pictured here, 2024 Sale day volunteers ready for action! The re-launch of the Rockcliffe Park Spring Book Sale this year, after a four-year hiatus, was an outstanding success.

Many thanks to all the members of our community who contributed to that success. Special thanks to local businesses for their support; to Michelle Lafrance and Epicuria, for keeping sale volunteers fed; to Metro Beechwood, for donating bags; and to Books on Beechwood and Bridgehead, for help with publicity.

And finally, a big thank you to all the shoppers who came to buy (an estimated 3,500 people, visited the sale during the weekend). Thanks to your support, we will be able to make a generous donation to the Library; proceeds from the Sale help to pay for new materials at the Rockcliffe Park Branch of the Ottawa Public Library (OPL) and for special programming.

So as long as this community keeps donating books and then buying them back, the Spring Book Sale will be a success!
