As the Rolling Hills Library prepares for its move early next year, some items in the current library that will not be needed at the new site are going up for sale.

A moving sale will be held this weekend inside the former PepperJax Grill location along the Belt Highway on Friday and Saturday.

Bookstore Manager Hans Bremer says the idea for the sale started after the Books Revisited bookstore received a large donation of books, and soon library items were added

“So now we have this large, pretty amazing truly, moving sale of tiles and carpet and books and some shelving and just a little bit of everything frankly,” Bremer tells KFEQ/St. Joseph Post.

Bremer says there was never a thought to throw away these items, pointing out there’s always things people can use in the community

“And this allows them to get it for next to nothing as it were,” Bremer explains. “We’re not so much concerned as making money as we are just putting it in the right hands and sending it on to its next part of its lifetime, because we have to make a little room, condense down a little bit as we move towards the new building, and there’s just some things we can’t take.

Bremer says the sale offers a little bit of something for everyone, at a pretty cheap price

“All the books are going to be marked just $1,” Bremer says. “Now as for as the remainder of the things, the tiles. Shelving, and things of that nature, none of those things will be marked, it’s going to be one of those things our director will be in and out through the weekend, I’ll be over there through the whole entire sale, we’ll be taking offers on items and if its reasonable, I’m sure we’re going to accept it.”

The sale will run from noon to 5pm tomorrow and from 10am to 5pm on Saturday. With a move expected to the new library location early next year, another moving sale is planned for November.
