Don't forget: the 2013 Dirty Book Sale starts tomorrow!

Make plans to shop our Dirty Book Sale, happening Thursday, November 7 and Friday, November 8 at the University of Georgia Tate Student Center Plaza. Fractured books will be available for a fraction of the price. There will be hundreds of slightly shelf worn, nearly new books in literary studies, history, biography, Civil War, cookery and more, as well as fiction and poetry.

The sale hours are:
Thursday 9:00am-4:30pm
Friday 9:00am-3:00pm


The sale is intended for individual customers only. No dealers, no exceptions. Hoarding, bulk purchases, excessive barcode scanning that blocks tables, and other similar behaviors are not permitted. There will be no tax-exempt sales.

The book sale is part of the UGA Spotlight on the Arts festival and the UGA Press 75th anniversary.

Spotlight on the Arts
The Spotlight on the Arts festival is presented by the UGA Arts Council, of which the University of Georgia Press and Richard B. Russell Building Special Collections Libraries are participating units. More than 60 events are scheduled during the nine-day festival in November. For more information, see http://arts.uga.edu/.
