Second Chapter Gently Used Books will open next week on Thursday, June 12th from 3 till 7 p.m. The store, located in downtown Le Mars, between Habitue Coffeehouse and the Blue Tequilla Restaurant, at 104 Central Avenue Northeast, will be managed by the volunteer efforts of the Friend of the Library Organization.
