Book Sales

Chambers Library is the home of the never-ending book sale. Rather than having one big annual event, we have Flash Sales, the Book Shelf, and an online store.

Flash Sales are one-day events in the library's basement, focusing on a subject area (although other books are also available). Most materials are $1

The Book Shelf is by the pillar near the Information Desk on the first floor. Materials are priced from 50¢ to $3. The inventory is always changing, so check often.

new Chamber of Books Store is our online store with books, DVDs, vinyl/LPs, and FOL merchandise available to purchase. Items can be picked up in the library, delivered on campus, or mailed.

Honor With Books     Honor With Books Now

Honor With Books may be used to celebrate milestones in life such as graduations, retirements, weddings, holidays and birthdays, or as a memorial tribute. Each gift of $50 purchases a specially designed bookplate bearing the name of the person you wish to honor and appropriate words for the occasion. That bookplate will be placed in a new book from a subject area of your choice. Each book may have one dedication and retains that dedication for its lifetime. A letter acknowledging your thoughtfulness will be sent to the honoree or his/her family, and also to you, the donor.
