Media and music items, such as CDs, DVDs, vinyl record players and sheet music were popular items featured at the sale. While the main star of the event was books, the Westport Library book sale offered other items that reached a wider audience.

All of the items were on sale for incredibly low prices and amazing quality, attracting large crowds of customers to the library for the duration of the book sale. On Sunday, Oct. 10, all items were half-price, allowing customers to purchase items for close to nothing.

The book sale wouldn't have been a success without all of its volunteers, composed mainly of local residents and teens volunteering through various non-profit organizations. Volunteers worked all throughout the book sale area as customers viewed the tables of books. Some jobs included sorting and "fluffing" the displays, tallying the price totals of people's selected items, checking out customers and greeting and giving directions.
