Book Sale changes

Say goodbye to our big annual Book Sale at Pioneer Centre, and Kia ora to our new smaller Book Sales! You'll be able to bag a bargain at different parts of town, as well as regular book sales at your local library. We want to make Book Sales cheaper to run and more accessible. You'll have more opportunities to bag a bargain, wherever you live.
