Donations

If you wish to donate books, please call the Library (948-BOOK) so that one of our volunteers can give you a call to make timing arrangements.

We ask that donations be limited to 2 bags or boxes unless you have made special arrangements with the library.

Sorry, but we cannot accept the following:

  • Items that appear to be moldy/mildewed or that have a musty odor
  • Books with stained or torn covers
  • Books with content that is underlined, highlighted &/or annotated
  • Encyclopedias (unless they are more than 100 years old)
  • Readers Digest condensed books
  • Magazines
  • Vinyl records, cassette tapes, and VHS tapes
  • Most textbooks (call first to see if the age and topics of the textbooks you want to donate will be something that we feel our buyers will purchase)
  • Medical or health books more than 3 years old
  • Technical or computer books more than 2 years old

Once donations are accepted, they may be added to the Library’s collection, sold at a book sale or via an on-line outlet.  In the event of items being sold, the proceeds are used to support library programs.
