The
National Sporting Library's Duplicate Book Sale is an annual fundraiser
for the Library's Acquisition Fund. The books sold are duplicates of items already
in the library's collection. The book sale often includes items
that are out of print and hard to find. The sale is run as a "silent
auction" through the mail, allowing members of the National
Sporting Library from around the world to participate.
The 2008 Duplicate Book Sale closed Nov. 6. Books that received no bids will be available for purchase at the minimum bid price, first come, first served. The list indicating books sold and those still available may be viewed here.
Please contact Librarian Lisa Campbell, 540-687-6542 x 13 or lcampbell@nsl.org, regarding purchases.
