Metropolitan book sale

Bargain books from the Metropolitan Museum of Art? Well say no more. I think that is a sale worth traveling into NYC — even in 90 degree heat.
My colleague Mary Shustack, who writes the Just Browsing blog about shopping wonders wrote yesterday about this first ever warehouse sale by the Museum book publisher. She said there are bargain books for $5 and prices go higher, but remember these are art books and real keepsakes. The sale is at the museum shop (second floor) , Fifth Avenue and 82nd Street, and runs today through May 10.
Oh, and don’t forget that many local libraries offer musuem passes. You can borrow these passes like books and they will get you into the museum free of charge. I am not sure which libraries offer which passes, but if you are planning a NYC visit and want to go museum hunting, check out your library resource. Two of the most popular museum passes are to the Natural History Museum on 77th Street and the Guggenheim Museum.
