November 2, 3 & 4

Barnes & Noble will donate a percentage of sales to help furnish the Crozet/Western Albemarle Library. Shoppers need to mention Crozet Library to the cashier for our account to be credited. Phone orders will be accepted; they will be credited to the bookfair if you mention our name and pay with the order. Membership discounts apply, as do coffee-shop purchases. A very few items are excepted: gift cards, textbooks, etc.
Local performers, student essay contest winners, and local authors will be at the three-day bookfair. See the schedule below.

3. Donate books via Barnes & Noble’s Holiday Book Drive.
November 1 – December 31
Purchase books to donate to the Crozet/Western Albemarle library.
This year, Barnes & Noble selected the Crozet Library as its one recipient of the Holiday Book Drive donations. Book buyers will be asked during the two months if they would like to purchase and donate a book from the Crozet Library wish list. These book purchases will be given directly to the library.
This is the best opportunity for anyone wishing to donate a specific book or set of books or shelf of books to the library. Pick up your favorites, buy them, and leave them at Barnes & Noble.
4. Double Dip Bonus: Donate books during the Nov 2nd – 4th Bookfair and 1) the library will receive the books, and 2) the purchase amounts will be credited as part of our bookfair earnings, increasing the net donation to the Crozet Library.
