Tickets Available for Belle of Amherst, Pygmalion New Photo Galleries Useful Links Foote's Book Fair – Something for Everyone Foote’s Book Fair – highlighted by two author receptions, a beautiful catalog, and a unique selection of books – begins this weekend with shopping at Barnes & Noble in North Haven and culminates next week on campus in the Twichell Room. The Foote Book Fair is like no other. We pick our own books for the on-campus Book Fair and produce a catalog to showcase them. Catalog titles were selected with great care by Librarian Lynda Johnson. Lynda spent months poring over book lists and choosing the ones that would be just right for Foote children of all ages. IN-STORE FAIR – Nov. 2, 3, & 4 Timed to precede the holidays, the multi-faceted Book Fair starts with a shopping weekend at Barnes & Noble on Universal Drive in North Haven, beginning Friday. During all store hours this weekend, Foote will receive 15 percent of your purchases ONLY if you present a Foote coupon at checkout. (Click here to download a coupon.) This is a chance to buy books and gift items that are NOT in our catalog. Weekend Highlight Reading and book signing: ON-CAMPUS FAIR– Nov. 5, 6, & 7 The Twichell Room Book Fair will be a delight.

You will be able to buy many of the catalog books on site, since there will be several copies of each available.
