It'll be a September to remember at the Bookmark Bookstore, where we're continuing our Monthly Member Sale on Saturday, September 20. Members receive 50% off on Saturday from 11AM-6PM; everyone receives 30% off on Sunday, September 21 from 11AM-5PM. Don't miss our store-wide dollar item deal (3 for $2), as well as hundreds of other deeply discounted items.
Material donations will resume on Friday, September 5 but please note: we will pause material donations every third weekend of the month for our recurring sales. Drop-in with a maximum of 4 bags or boxes of materials on Fridays and Saturdays thereafter (non-sale weekends only) from 12-4PM at our 10th St Donation Center entrance. Questions? See our donation policy for more info.
This September, we're excited about our bookshop.org collection of children's Back to School picture books, and our Celebra Tu Herencia / Celebrate Your Heritage curation honoring Latinx/e voices. And don't miss our in-store "Back to School" curation, as well as our display in honor of Latinx/e Heritage Month.
Choose the Bookmark Bookstore as your affiliate shop and a portion of your Bookshop.org purchase will support the Oakland Public Library, empowering all people to explore, connect, and grow.
