Interested in European history? Economics? Politics? The Center for European Studies Library is selling its books on these topics until 6 p.m. today.

The dusty shelves of the small library of the lower level of CES hold a wealth of untouched knowledge; many of these books have been left unopened since the CES library closed in September of 2010. Today these volumes of books concerning Europe are on sale for prices ranging from $1 to $5.

"I wish more students knew about it," said Grace W. Njunge ’15, one of the students who helped coordinate the sale. "There’s so much history in this library."

The sale is one day only and ends in around an hour, so hurry over to the CES to take advantage of some amazing deals.
