Books and reading material will fill Maroske Hall in Horsham, with the hall being opened from 12pm to 9pm on Friday and from 9am to 12pm on Saturday. 

Book fair organiser Yolande Grosser said she is amazed at how many books the committee has received for the fair. 

“St Brigid’s College have been fabulous, the school library has donated some texts that they are not using anymore. There is especially a heap of biography,” she said. 

“There are people still dropping off books, it’s amazing.” 

There is a cafe opened at Maroske Hall while the book fair is running, Mrs Grosser said home economics students from Horsham College are making soup for the cafe. 

The cafe is a gold coin donation. Mrs Grosser said the money made from the cafe goes towards a scholarship for the alternate programs for students.
