The once-a-year Mary Jane McCord Planned Parenthood Book Sale returns this September, offering an incredible selection of over 200,000 gently used books alongside puzzles, games, vinyl records, CDs, and DVDs—all at exceptionally affordable prices. Held annually to benefit Planned Parenthood California Central Coast, this beloved event draws book lovers, collectors, and curious browsers alike.
Admission is free throughout the duration of the sale, with the exception of Opening Night on Thursday, September 10, when early access is available for a $30 ticket. Attendees that evening get first pick of the expansive inventory. With new items added daily, there’s always something fresh to discover. On the final day of the sale, remaining items are offered at 50% off, making it the perfect time to stock up. Proceeds support the six health centers operated by PPCCC, helping provide essential healthcare services throughout the Central Coast.
