Events Roundup
Sept. 10, 2026
This week, we're highlighting an event pick by Taproot community coordinator Debbi Serafinchon. Debbi recommends the Books2Buy Sale, a library fundraiser where you'll find books, DVDs, video games, CDs, and audiobooks.
Books2Buy Sale
š
Sept. 11 to Sept. 13
š Edmonton Public Library (Stanley A. Milner)
Find books, DVDs, video games, CDs, and audiobooks will be available. Funds generated from the sale support our early literacy program, Ready. Set. READ!
Here's what Debbi had to say:
"Public libraries hold a special place in my childhood memories. From the excitement of getting my first library card to the smell of all those books, the library was magical. Attending the Books2Buy event isn't just a way to fill my reading addiction, it's also about making sure the next generation gets to fall in love with the library."
