About a book sale outside the George Jackson Academy on St. Mark’s Place

This Friday and Saturday, the George Jackson Academy, located at 104 St. Mark's Place between First Avenue and Avenue A, is hosting a book sale to benefit its library.

Hours are Friday from 3-8 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Over 500 books will be available for purchase, selected from the school's collection in recent years, including donated books that weren't suitable for middle school boys, as well as elementary-level titles.

Expect a wide selection, including fiction, nonfiction (such as history and biography), manga, reference, poetry, and more. There will also be opera and classical vinyl, as well as documentary DVDs.

Proceeds will be used to restock the school's library with high-interest books for the students.
