An absolutely fantastic used book sale. This is easily one of the best organized, well run annual sales in the Twin Cities metro. A few things that make the sale operate so well include: numbers handed out in advance of the opening of the preview sale, written customer conduct guidelines handed out by the staff, a holding area for books, well marked categories, and a room large enough to hold all the people and books. The sale organizers and volunteer staff are doing a great job. Additionally, the sale is great because there are reasonable prices, books that appear not to have been cherry-picked by dealers before the sale, and an awesome group of shoppers who are well behaved and take the time to follow the sale conduct guidelines. Well done, Bloomington Crime Prevention Association.
