The 19th annual Centenary Book Bazaar -- with thousands of used books, records, CDs and tapes -- will be held from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday (Sept. 9) and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday (Sept. 10), says Amy Giglio.

See over 30 categories of books, including bestsellers, encyclopedias, dictionaries, literary classics, novels, textbooks, first editions, rare books and special interest categories. Peruse 3,700 children's books, 1,600 cookbooks and 700 science fiction flights. Not to mention new-age literature, books on tape and CD, and large-print books. Also, all items are in good condition.

There's the Treasure Chest: books published within the past three years. Find coffee table books in the Jewel Box.

A silent auction will feature 15 rare books. While books will be sold on the main floor of the Gold Dome, over 3,000 vinyl records, including many Hollywood, Broadway and television soundtracks, will be sold by the Centenary music sorority, Sigma Alpha Iota, on the upper level.

The annual sale is sponsored by the Centenary Muses, an organization of ethereal beings.

Admission is free and book prices start at 25 cents. For further information, contact Book Bazaar HQ at 318-219-3409 or Ms. Giglio at 318-869-5136.
