The auctions will take place on location at ALERT Academy, One Academy Boulevard (Route 80, approximately 2 miles east of Big Sandy) and will be organized into Friday evening and Saturday afternoon pairs of auctions, combined with library-style book sales. Each weekend will include approximately 800 lots, containing nearly 10,000 books. The first auctions will be on September 22 and 23rd and complete catalogs will soon be available for previewing at our website. Later auction dates will be posted as they are scheduled, stay tuned to our website for updated information. This library is a complete university campus facility with full Library of Congress categorization and has been closed since 1997. The library's closing pre-dates the advent of internet book selling and this is the first time this inventory has been put to market. Over the three-month period, we will systematically move through the library, following the classifications. The library contains a high percentage of antique books including many landmark texts of significant value. We will be organizing the auction lots into individual titles, small groups and boxlots. This is a rare opportunity to access a massive collection of strong dealer inventory and collectible titles including thousands of antique books and limited print scholarly works.
