Fond of books? Do you love mysteries, history, religion, humor, philosophy? Does a bestseller draw your attention? Fancy fiction or non-fiction? Paperbacks your cup of tea?

Volunteers Ron Horndasch and Sister Rose Marita
Riordan sort books in advance of the Sisters of
Providence Used Book Sale. The sale runs Aug. 4-12
in the Providence Center Conference Room.

Then, hurry out to Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Ind., this Saturday for the start of the Sisters of Providence Used Book Sale. The sale, which is in the Providence Center Conference Room, runs through Sunday, Aug. 12.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday (Indiana time). Get directions here.

Hosted by The Gift Shop at Providence Center, the book sale is one of the most popular events in the Wabash Valley. Many times, attendees say they not only have found books they have been searching for but find others that become new treasures for home libraries.

Books cover a variety of topics of interest to casual readers, including travel, poetry, cooking, gardening and more. Children's books and gift books are also available, in addition to puzzles.

The Used Book Sale also features CDs and DVDs

Although books dominate the offerings, the sale offers even more. Be sure and take a look at the entertainment table full of CDs and DVDs.

Pay for items via cash, check or charge card. All proceeds benefit Sisters of Providence ministries.

After selecting your books, stop in The Gift Shop at Providence Center for jewelry, clothing, coffees and teas, greeting cards, children's toys, home decor items and more. The Gift Shop hours are the same as the Used Book Sale hours.
