MAIN ROOM – Saturday Entry Procedures

Get In Line By 11am – Get in line early for 11am entry to the Main Room. 

12 Book Limit – Due to health and safety regulations, no more than 80 customers at a time can be allowed into the Main Room. During the first hour or until the Sales Manager lifts the restriction, each customer may select no more than 12 books at a time, pay for the items in the cashier line, and exit through the east door. The customer may then join the end of any remaining line at the north/entry door and re-enter in that order. The limitation of 12 books at a time will continue past noon if a line remains outside.

1 Bag Limit – There is also a limit of one grocery-sized or one green FOPAL reusable bag per customer for carrying your book selections. We do not allow use of large “Costco” or “Ikea”-sized bags, or boxes any kind, until any shopping limits are lifted.

To avoid lines and crowds, we suggest browsing after noon on Saturday, or on Sunday.
