Today's the day! Here's what to expect from preview day:

- From 12pm-4pm, attendees get first-pick access to the sale with a donation of $20 at checkout, which includes a VIP FOHL membership for one year.
- We’ll close from 4pm-5pm to restock the shelves with fresh books and materials.
From 5pm-8pm, we’ll hold our usual Preview Night, where a $5 donation at checkout lets you shop the sale before the general public.
- For increased safety and a more pleasant shopping experience, we will allow a limited number of shoppers into the room at a time. Both Preview Day and Preview - Night will admit attendees using numbers - you can arrive at the Helmerich Library anytime after 10am to receive your number. Each individual going into the sale must have a number, but only the person checking out needs to pay the membership fee.

Can't wait to see you and happy shopping!
