BOOKSHOP BULLETIN: 10/24/08 Update:

BOOKSHOP BRIEFS

• Follow Santa to the Friends’ BookShop for Holiday gifts for the readers on your list. We have mugs, note-cubes, tee shirts, book bags/totes, note-cards, bookmarks, and more all with “printed on” book or reading related art. We have collectible books and new Corona or California history books along with citrus labels and road race posters suitable for framing. Can’t decide? We have BookShop Gift Certificates. Best of all, all purchases benefit the Corona Library.
• In September we cleaned and “weeded” every shelf in the BookShop. Whew! The good news is that we weeded-out lots of books that had set on our shelves for a year or more. That means that those shelves now have many new (to the Shop) books. And we do some stocking of new books every day. Tip: usually new stock is placed on the right end of the shelf.
• Have you seen our “classy” new BookShop display board where we list our specials for the week and other information?
• The BookShop will soon have a Loyalty Card (for Friends’ members only) that will earn you dollars toward your next purchase as a reward for frequent shopping. Watch for more information about the Loyalty Card right here on the Website.

See you in the Shop….. Tacy

The BookShop

A BookShop Success Story:
The Friends' BookShop.

The Friends' of the Library BookShop is an used bookstore located in the Corona Public Library. We are fully operated by volunteers and proceeds from our sales directly benefit library programs and projects. The BookShop generated over $100,000 last year alone.

Our BookShop is special and unique among library bookstores or any other used bookseller. We pride ourselves on our well organized, well stocked shelves with 64 categories and easily navigatable colorful signage. New inventory is put out every day. Our prices are amongst the lowest of any competive bookstores offering the same merchandise, often starting at 50¢ for paperbacks and $1.00 for hardcover editions. In addition to books, we also sell audio-visual materials, puzzles, games, sets of books, collectible books, Corona history items, Silent Auctions, and gift books.

We offer new book-related gift items such as t-shirts, book bags, mugs, and note cubes. It’s the perfect place to buy a gift for any reader or “book person”.

We have lots of sales – at least one, and usually three of our categories are 50% off of the marked price at any given time. NEW! For early notification of BookShop sales, ask to be added to our email alerts, click here. Be sure to print one of our coupons for monthly discounts.
