The Vose Seminary Book Sale
Annual sale April 2012
The annual Vose book sale was begun by librarians Val Wild and Gerry Covington in 1988 to raise funds and add books to the library from donated books. Each year, our volunteers sort thousands of books in preparation for the sale in April. The current book sale managers are Neil Mactaggart and Sue Clark.
We accept donations of books all year round. You can drop them off any time. We take almost anything, but not the following:
- Old magazines
- Reader's Digest Condensed Novels
- Encyclopedias unless recent and complete
- Dated computer manuals
Outside of business hours, please leave them on the front porch; during business hours, please come and ask the library staff. If you have any questions, call us on 6313 6288.
Perpetual sale
As well as the famous annual book sale, Vose runs a year round Christian book sale in the Library Lounge, at the front of the library.
You'll find lots of quality Old Testament, New Testament, theology, church history, ministry and Christian living titles. More books are added every week. The books are for sale whenever the library is open, with extended hours until 7pm Tuesday to Thursday during semester.
