This September 17th through 21st, bring your family to the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds for a reading adventure! Twice a year, in the spring and fall, this huge event space transforms into a book lover’s dream. From fiction to nonfiction, and children to adult literature, everyone will find something at this book sale! Plus it’s free to enter and browse!
It may be a good idea to bring a stroller for the comfort and safety of younger children. If you want to buy books, make sure you bring cash or checks as these are the only accepted forms of payment. This event is not pet-friendly, with the exception of service animals. All proceeds benefit the ten library branches, programs, and the Mobile Library in Springfield. If you want to become a Friends of the Library member you can join at the door for $5. This event takes place at 3001 N. Grant Ave. in Springfield. For more information, visit them on the web or at their Facebook page.
