Black Friday book sale at the library

Black Friday SaleFriends of the Tualatin Library will be holding a Black Friday Weekend Sale November 24, 25, and 26 on the freestanding shelves at the library. All items on those shelves will be 50% off. There will be a variety of genres as well as media available.
