The Great KIA Book Swap returns! Bring up to 10 gently-used books to the KIA to trade for new-to-you titles! Music and refreshments will be provided. Enter a raffle for great prizes from our sponsors! Receive one raffle ticket per book, with a limit of 10 tickets per person. You must be present at the time of the drawing to win raffle prizes. Please no textbooks, encyclopedias, magazines, or used activity books. Books should be in good physical condition—no moldy, torn, or damaged books. Keep in mind that this is a book swap, so bring books in the condition that you would want to receive. Drop your books off early to receive extra raffle tickets and skip the check-in line! Bring them to the KIA between 12:00-3:00pm on Wednesday, April 8, for five extra raffle tickets. Many thanks to our sponsors and community partners: Friends of the Kalamazoo Public Library, Kazoo Books, and this is a bookstore & Bookbug.
