library sales
Discounted collection dispersal
Library sales are events where libraries sell books and other materials to the public, typically items that have been withdrawn from circulation, donated, or are duplicates.
These sales help libraries clear space and raise funds: I found a first edition at the library sale for two dollars.
The term also refers to publishers selling books directly to libraries, a distinct market from retail.
