March at the Book Place

​

We’re celebrating Women’s History Month! Choose any NON-Fiction book about a woman, women’s issues, or anything related to women, and get 50% off! They’re all around the store: Art, Sports, Entertainment, Music, True Adventure (you get the idea). Celebrate women, their lives, and their contribution. 

​

We also have a sale on Romance; small paperbacks are just 50¢ each all month. It’s a great time to stock up.

 

We take Requests - send us an email, we’ll look for the book to save time, or, if it’s a book we don’t have in stock, get on our waitlist, and we’ll let you know when it comes in.

​

The Book Place is operated by the Friends of the Marin County Free Library, a nonprofit volunteer organization. All proceeds are used for special programs, needs, and materials for the Marin County Free Libraries.
