Carpe Librum will be popping up in Van Ness ( 4340 Connecticut Ave NW ) for an exciting outdoor book sale in the square on June 18th!

This is a great opportunity to spend a sunny day supporting literacy and education in the DC public school system. We will need volunteers to help us pop up, check out, and pop down the tables and bookshelves for this extraordinary and energetic fundraising event.

Can you lend a hand?

  • The first shift is from 8:30am - 10:00am helping to set up the table and shelves.
  • The second shift is from 5:00pm - 6:30pm helping to break down the tables and pack up books.
We are also happy to take volunteer assistance for checkout and inventory restocking for any portion of the selling period from 10:00am - 5:00pm. As a thank you, volunteers for any shift may each take home one book on us!

Whether you have all day or just a few hours, we would love to have you come help out!

Contact Marin at mkirk@turningthepage.org for more information.


(By the way, we're not just any bookstore: we're a fundraising bookstore! Carpe Librum collects donated books, CDs, and DVDs to support the DC nonprofit Turning the Page.)
