Some items will be priced separately.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe books offered during the sale are items that were donated and cannot be included in the library\u2019s collection and books that are no longer relevant to the library\u2019s collection,\u201d the release said.<\/p>\n<p>The release also said there is a \u201clarge variety\u201d of books for sale.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe goal this year is to get books out,\u201d said Karen McPheeters, library director. \u201cWe know a lot of people cleaned out their homes and generously donated books during the pandemic. The library is beyond capacity for storage, and we\u2019d love to get these books to good homes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Volunteers are also needed during the event. To volunteer, call Amanda Wussow at (505) 566-2210.<\/p>\n<p><em id=\"emphasis-fc76ab5307a196d030a8816d952d7cb0\"><a href=\"mailto:mmitchell@durangoherald.com\">mmitchell@durangoherald.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>year\u2019s event was canceled because of COVID-19<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":44615,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[799,28,638,443],"naviga_topic":[],"class_list":["post-44614","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-farmington","tag-headlines","tag-library-and-museum","tag-san-juan-county-new-mexico"],"acf":[],"author_name":"dh_admin","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44614","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44614"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44614\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":86157,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44614\/revisions\/86157"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44614"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44614"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44614"},{"taxonomy":"naviga_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/naviga_topic?post=44614"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
