SUMMARY:Mary Lou Melby Memorial Book Sale
DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: The sale dates may have passed, but we still have plenty of books left over! We’ve pulled a selection of Mary Lou’s books that patrons can still browse and take home with a donation to the library. Currently available are many Christmas-themed books, as well as a variety of other fiction and non-fiction titles.\n++++++\nCelebrate the life of local resident Mary Lou Melby during this 2-day memorial book sale!\nMary Lou was a great supporter of the Scandinavia Public Library. She loved exploring her interests and satisfying her curiosity through the library’s collections, and delighted staff with her jovial sense of humor and positive outlook.\nAs a life-long, avid reader, Mary Lou amassed a personal collection of over 3,300 books. After she passed in June, 2025, the family decided to donate this collection to the Scandinavia Public Library to use for a fundraising event in support of the library.\nMary Lou’s collection, along with a smaller number of used library books, will be available for the public to browse on Thursday, November 14, from 9 a.m.–6 p.m. and on Saturday, November 15 from 9 a.m.–1 p.m. Fiction and non-fiction; books, audiobooks and DVDs; standard print and large print; children’s, teen, and adult materials will all be available. No prices will be marked; patrons simply need to make a donation to the library, and they can take home a stack of ‘new to them’ books!\nThe library will have gifts available for different donation levels as well:\n\ndonate $2 to receive a library pin\ndonate $5 to receive a package of Scandinavian Star ornaments\ndonate $20 to receive a canvas library book tote\ndonate $25 to receive all three items!\n\nMary Lou is very much missed by our staff, and the Scandinavia Public Library is grateful to the Melby family for this opportunity.\n
