- Students in Preschool should be picked up in the classrooms by a parent and brought to the book sale during their assigned shopping time*.
- Students in grades K-2 will have assigned shopping days/times* by class - parents are invited to join them at those times.

*Assigned shopping days and times will be shared via InTouch in September. Please check your child’s class schedule to plan your campus visit to the Book Sale.
Book Drive begins in September
Before purchasing new books at the book sale, clear out your old ones! Donations for children’s books in good condition are accepted in late September through October. Donation boxes are spread throughout campus.
Friends of Library Bookplates
Bookplates are dedication labels placed inside the front of new library books. They may be purchased for $25 each to honor someone special to you or the ROBS community. The Friends of the Library Bookplate donations provide additional books to our beloved libraries. There will be a table set up during the book sale where you may select your books in which to add the donation bookplates. Order forms will be available online or at the book sale.
