Free to Read 2026 – Saturday April 25th from 10am – 3pm.
Join us at Old Quebec Street Shoppes for our annual Free to Read Book Sale supporting the Books for Inmates Program, a program that supports literacy programs in correctional facilities across South-Western Ontario. The Free to Read Sale has provided thousands of books and funding to this program since its inception in 2022.
All items are $2.
We chose April 25th as it is the Saturday that falls closest to the UNESCO World Book Day, April 23. World Book Day is an annual event that celebrates the joy of reading and books.
If you are interested in helping out with collection, sorting, or the book sale, please contact John Dennis at director@guelphtoollibrary.org for more information.
Donations will be collected until Wednesday April 22.
