The library offers used books for sale in the Digi-Print copy center located in the north side of the building, just inside the front entrance. Books are priced $1-4. Savitars are $15 and comic books are only 50 cents. Also check the box for FREE book jackets. New books are put out each week on Wednesday mornings. Come in and browse – you never know what you might find!
The book sale funds the MU Libraries Staff Association (MULSA), which maintains the Staff Lounge; provides donations, flowers, cards, etc., when happiness or disaster strikes a member of the MU Libraries staff; and sponsors get-togethers, such as the New Staff Tea, Summer Picnic, Halloween Party, Christmas Party, retirement celebrations, and the annual Celebration of Service. MULSA also donates to Second Chance, Rainbow House and the Central Missouri Food Bank, and sponsors several families at Christmas. Your book purchase helps fund MULSA!
Also, free books are sometimes placed on a cart in the staff lounge in Ellis. They are generally put out on Thursdays mornings, but not every week.
