Welcome to the Great Barrington Libraries

Q: What do you get when you combine Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Giving Tuesday?

A: Two holiday used book sales in one at the GB Mason Library.

Now through the end of December.

Get great bargains and support the Friends of the GB Libraries.

UPSTAIRS

Special books at special prices on our sale tables. Get a beautiful bargain book suitable for wrapping (or keep it for yourself). Most for only $3 and all under $20.

DOWNSTAIRS

A room full of books for children and young adults. All FREE. That’s right, FREE, thanks to a donation from Lee Bank.

Do your holiday shopping at the Mason Library.
