Donate Your Gently Used Books

We do accept donations of no more than 3 reasonably sized boxes of gently used books and audio/visual materials, with the following guidelines:

We love to receive current popular titles in print, audio, or DVD.

We gladly accept adult/teen/children's fiction, classics, non-fiction less than 10 years old, and CD/DVD recordings in original packaging with artwork.

We cannot accept textbooks, encyclopedias, magazines, condensed books, Harlequin series romance novels, non-fiction more than 10 years old, videotapes, cassettes, and CD/DVD recordings without original packaging and artwork.

We also cannot accept any items in poor condition with discolored/highlighted/torn pages, missing covers, mildew/smoke odor, stains, bugs, or water damage.

Once we receive your donations, we look for items that meet our material selection criteria for use in the library. All remaining items may be donated to the Friends of the Library book sales, given to other libraries or charitable organizations, etc.

If you would like to donate your gently used books, you may drop them off during regular business hours. Happy cleaning!
