St. Agnes's farewell book sale

The used-book sale this weekend at the St. Agnes Branch (Amsterdam Avenue & W. 81st St.) of the New York Public Library is not only the last before they close for renovatons, it is apparently the last ever (after a 25-year run). I will definitely be there:

September 7, 8, and 9, 2007
Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Sunday, noon - 5 p.m.

The books are plentiful and cheap. And good: Some smart people live on the Upper West Side and when they’re done with their books, they donate them to the library to be sold. I don't know what they're going to do with their old books now. I will certainly miss their sales twice a year.
