The Bluffton Public Library Teen Advisory Group (TAG) will kick off Library Lovers Month with a youth book sale Feb. 7-11. More than 1,000 "slightly or very loved" children's and teen books will be available by donation during regular library hours.

"The library has had many book sales in the past which mostly consisted of books for adults," said Youth Services Coordinator, Rikki Steingass. "I think it's wonderful that this is the first book sale to focus on materials for youth because they love books just as much as grown-ups!"

The Icon spotted this Fraternal Order of Police plate in the Founders Hall parking lot.
