Used Books, Tapes, Software Today Through Saturday

The Environmental Defenders will hold their spring Used Book Sale at the Woodstock Square Mall, 110 S Johnson St, lower level, starting today, Wednesday, May 30th through Saturday, June 2nd 9 am - 4 pm. Saturday will be a Bag Sale!

For over 40 years, the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County has been a leader in encouraging re-use and recycling practices throughout McHenry County. Each year, the Woodstock-based nonprofit holds several sales of good-quality used books, tapes, videos, and software that have been donated by private citizens and area libraries. Items are sold at extremely low prices to keep them in use and out of landfills. All proceeds go to support the environmental programs and services offered by the Defenders.

The sale offers flea-market prices on thousands of top authors and best-selling novels, biographies, sports, travel and adventure books, self-help titles, cookbooks and crafts, philosophy and religion, business guides, computer manuals, and much more.

Book donations can always be made (even after the sale ends) at the drop box in front of the Woodstock Square Mall or at the Defenders’ “Green Spot” used book store, located on the first floor of the building, during regular hours.

The Environmental Defenders of McHenry County is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and improvement of the environment. The group provides community residents with educational programs and volunteer action on pollution prevention, sustainable land use and energy and natural resource conservation. Donations are encouraged and are tax-deductible as charitable contributions.  For more information, visit www.mcdef.org or call 815-338-0393.
