We’ve had our 68th Annual Scholarship Book Sale –
Thank you to the Buffalo area community for your wonderful support!!

We’ll try to update details as we get ready for the 2025 sale. Let’s start here:

• The next sale will be at our traditional time – May 28-June 1, 2025. We’ll be back at last year’s location – 425 Essjay in Williamsville.

• Accepting books at 37 Anderson Rd ended on Saturday, April 5. 

• We will accept books at the sale site April 22 – May 14. Tuesday 10am-8pm, Wednesday 10am-5pm, Thursday and Friday 1pm-5pm, Saturday 10am-noon.

• Please, no professional journals, Reader’s Digest Condensed books (except large print), magazines (except WNY Heritage), cassettes, videotapes, encyclopedias, Time/Life books, technical manuals or computer books. We do welcome puzzles, CDs, DVDs, and 33rpm records! All in good condition, of course – if you wouldn’t give it to a friend, we probably can’t sell it!

Plus kudos to the Buffalo and Erie County Library System and the NIOGA Library System for distributing our bookmarks AND to several of their branches for donating books!

Our eternal gratitude to Amherst YES, Sacred Heart Academy, and Canisius High School for the muscle power they provided to set up our tables and move the boxes collected over the winter to the appropriate areas.
