Library book sale

The Friends of the Bridgton Public Library are holding a fall book sale from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Sept. 21, at the book shed in the parking lot behind the library, rain or shine. Fill up a bag of books for $5 per bag. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own bags if possible. The money raised will support library literacy programs.
