Friends of the LSU Libraries will hold its 2019 Book Bazaar on January 24 and 25 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and January 26 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the 4-H Mini Farm & Nelson Memorial on the LSU campus. Volunteers at the Book Barn prepare for this three-day event all year, receiving donations, and sorting and pricing books.
The Book Bazaar attracts book collectors and book lovers of all ages with its collection of over 60,000 used books of all kinds including novels, children’s books, cookbooks, art books and more with prices as low as 25 cents. The bazaar also includes a treasure table with rare and valuable books.
Proceeds from the bazaar go into an endowment that has provided more than $1 million in support of library acquisitions and services over the years. The endowment is currently valued at $2.2 million.
