Silver Unicorn: ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) Sale to benefit the Acton Food Pantry

Each year, publishers send us Advanced Review Copies, or ARCs, of books that are yet to be published, so that we can read them ahead of time. After the book is published, they become obsolete. We don’t want to throw them away, because that would be wasteful, but they take up a lot of room, so we have to get rid of them somehow, and also, we are not allowed to profit from the sale of them. Our solution — the ARC Sale!

ALL proceeds go to the Acton Food Pantry. This is what we call a WIN, WIN, WIN. We get to clear out our shed, you get good books for cheap, and the Acton Food Pantry gets much-needed funds. WIN. WIN. WIN. It’s one of our favorite annual traditions.

The ARC Sale is CASH ONLY. One book is $2, or three for $5. Cash and food donations for the Acton Food Pantry are also welcome.
