The secret formula is a Members-Only preview sale on Friday evening, then the Saturday Book Sale, open to the general public, which was paired with the “Coffee and a Book – the Perfect Blend” fundraiser, in collaboration with the Malden-based coffee roaster and vendor New England Coffee. The Sale will be held at the Library on Friday, May 3, from 6-9 p.m. and Saturday, May 4, from 10-2 p.m. See you there!
