The Friends of the Paulding County Carnegie Library will be hosting the March \u201cOff the Clock\u201d event for the Paulding Chamber of Commerce on March 6th from 5:00 p.m. \u2013 6:30 p.m. at the \u201cBuy the Book\u201d Bookstore located next to the main historic Carnegie library in Paulding. The name is a play on words because the books are not priced; shoppers can donate a free-will offering for their choices. Situated in the rear of the old \u201cDoc Pritchard\u201d building, the Friend\u2019s used bookstore is stocked with fiction, mysteries, non-fiction, children\u2019s titles, romance, educational titles, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Friends of the Paulding County Library is one of the newest members of the Chamber and was first established in 1988. By shopping at \u201cBuy the Book\u201d, the public is allowing the Library to receive extra funds for miscellaneous things it possibly wouldn\u2019t otherwise enjoy. While closed for a few weeks recently for painting and a new floor, \u201cBuy the Book\u201d is now again open. A \u201cribbon-cutting\u201d for the new remodeled bookstore will take place during the \u201cOff the Clock\u201d event. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to welcome Friends of the Paulding County Carnegie Library to the Chamber crew, and we\u2019re even more excited to celebrate their new and improved bookstore,\u201d says Chamber director Mikayla Pieper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regular hours for Buy the Book Used Bookstore are Wednesdays from 3:30 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. and on Saturday mornings from 9:00 a.m. until noon.
