Did you know that you CAN order from home? You do not have to try to mesh your schedule with our availability or waste that precious gas to get to our main library location! Visit our homepage for details about our book fair and purchase directly on our website! https://www.scholastic.com/bf/brookecountypubliclibrary

WE ARE READY, ARE YOU! We are ready, are you?!

Did you know that you can preview what will be at the Book Fair? Visit our homepage, and scroll down to the button that reads, PREVIEW THE BOOKS! It will give you an interactive 360-degree look at the fair! Of course, the setup at our library will be different, but this is the content we expect to have.

Shhhh...It's kinda a secret. Did you know that you could buy books early from our Book Fair via purchasing online? We don't have the physical book fair open until 6/2, BUT the digital option of purchasing online is open as of 5/29. Online ordering does end on 6/11, but we hope this gives you lots of time to order if you can't make it down. We get it, schedules are crazy, and gas is expensive. So be a bit less crazy, and order from the comfort of your home. Thanks for helping
