The Friends of the Hays Public Library group is holding its first ever  “Scholastic Book Fair” this month.  Appropriately, the event is upstairs in the Young Adult Department.

Friends President Marjorie Mueller says Thursday afternoon from 3-6p.m. is the final chance to purchase books for appropriate for children and teens.  “Books make good Christmas presents.  We’ve had parents and grandparents in buying them as gifts,” she says.

The group hosts several used book sales throughout the year as primary fundraisers for various library programs, including the children’s summer reading program.
