Atchison County Library employee Shelby Hurst helps two young readers pick out free books that were graciously donated to the library to give away. The sale started with 10 full book carts and ended up with less than three carts, so they estimate that approximately 750 books found new homes!

Jennifer Vogler stocked up on books for her preschool classroom.

Stetson Martin found a spot to read a book during the sale.
