Friends bookshop to close during Sunset renovation

The Friends of the Library Bookshop will close at 2 p.m. Saturday, July 7, and reopen after renovation of the Sunset Theatre is completed.

Work on the theatre is tentatively slated to begin in August and is expected to last up to 240 days.

The bookshop operates in a cityowned building at 226 Sunset Avenue, adjoining a building beside the Sunset that will become the theatre’s new lobby. Modifications to the adjoining building will encompass the back part of the bookshop.

The bookshop, staffed entirely by volunteers from the Friends, sells donated books and discarded library material. All proceeds supplement the library’s book budget. Sale of highlighted items from the bookshop will continue in the upstairs lobby of the Asheboro library. Book donations will be not accepted while the bookshop is closed, but small gifts of recent popular titles and children’s books can be dropped off at the library.
