NOTICE to BOOKSALE LOVERS –

IT’s OVER for 2026!.

Thanks to all our friends and faithful customers for another successful year! Of course, we’ll start collecting for our 71st sale soon – probably in September – and will post the details soon!

SPONSOR our sale!

We are pleased to offer the opportunity for members and friends to help Sponsor the Book Sale by making a donation to the AAUW Buffalo Branch. Making it relevant to the Book Sale, we have created the following donation categories. Names of sponsors will be recognized by category on a poster at the Book Sale. This will help to defray our costs – utilities, table rentals, moving (books from collection site to the sale site), and some paid assistance.

Sponsorship Categories:

• • Louisa May Alcott, $25 – $49
  • Toni Morrison, $50 – $74
  • The Brontë Sisters, $75 – $99
  • Jane Austen, $100 +

If you are interested in being a sponsor, please send a check made out to AAUW Buffalo Book Sale, to PO Box 894, Buffalo, NY 14225. Friends and non-members are also encouraged to help sponsor our sale. What a wonderful gift or memorial idea! Donations are tax deductible.

Also to Christ United Methodist Church for helping us out with some desperately needed temporary storage space last winter. The church has several charitable projects which align with AAUW’s mission. They would certainly appreciate donations of materials and/or, of course, monetary contributions. See Local – Christ United Methodist Church (christchurchamherst.org).

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!
