Skidompha Secondhand Book Shop is open during the holidays
Except for Christmas Day, the Skidompha Secondhand Book Shop in downtown Damariscotta will be open every day during the holiday weeks, including on Sundays and New Year’s Day.
It will be open during its usual hours, which are Sunday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Monday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Sunday hours will continue after the holidays. The original plan was for the shop to be closed on Sundays between Christmas and the summer, but the Sunday staff members have volunteered to keep it open.
Donations will be accepted as usual: all day Mondays, and from 8 to 10 a.m. on the other days, with a limit of four bags or boxes per person per visit.
The book shop is a major fundraiser for Skidompha Public Library. All staff are volunteers, all items are donated, and all proceeds support the collections and programs of the library. Besides hard-cover books and paperbacks in dozens of categories for all ages, the shop offers puzzles, music on CDs and records, and movies on VCR tapes and DVDs.
