Once again Wedsworth Library has a AAA treatment program for Bookaholics. The first step is admitting it. The second step is to keep right on reading. You might be a Bookaholic If: When trouble strikes, you head to a book sale. You will either be able to solve the problem, or simply have something to read as the world crashes down on you.
You might be a Bookaholic If: When you are Cold, you buy a book. You’ll still be cold but you’ll have books! The picture window in your wallet displays your library card instead of your driver’s license.
You might be a Bookaholic If: Your idea of a fun weekend is rearranging your library for the 100th time or when others come to you for advice, you just give them books to read. You might be a Bookaholic If: You’re not sure what people who go to the beach without a book even do there, to be honest. Finishing a book you loved is like losing a best friend.
You might be a Bookaholic If: When you’re between books, you feel lost. You carry a book with you at all times because you never know when you’ll have a spare minute to do some extra reading. You might be a Bookaholic If: If you go too long without buying or reading a book you feel a huge sense of withdrawal and are thinking of the next time you can get away to a book sale. Walking by a book sale is torture.
You might be a Bookaholic If: You’re incapable of going by a book sale without buying something. You buy more books even if you have a stack of books that haven’t been read. I’m a bookaholic on the road to recovery. Just kidding. I’m on the road to the Wedsworth book sale.

It will be a Jim Dandy of a sale! This rousing event raises money in support of our library. Our budget took a hard hit when several financial circumstances changed. The insurance world changed and now we are required to carry our own insurance. This became a very large line-item expense. So the proceeds of the sale have become a vital part of our income. Added expenses mean a cut someplace so we are hoping to have a great sale to replace those line-item costs and not have to cut our book budget or audio book/DVD line items expenses. Our small income budget doesn’t allow for much wiggle worm in the expense department. We unfortunately have to depend on our book sale income to meet our daily needs. We need your support.
So come enjoy the soup and cookies and whatever other goodies always show up. We also have a verifiable pretty substantial rumor that we are going to be seeing some of the best corn bread you have ever tasted. So Taste Testing Time!! Taste test the soups and see if the bread and cornbread are not the best you have ever eatin. We are offering up a challenge here!!! Lookin forward to seeing you on Saturday October the 8th from 9:00-4:00; and Sunday October the 9th. And we’d love to see you on Friday the 7th to help set up and on Sunday to help undo.
