Please DO NOT place items in book return bins or leave them outside library doors. ​DO Make an appointment by emailing: [email protected] 
NOTE: All donations must be in excellent shape to either go in the library's collection or be sold at our Friends' Book Sales. 
A good question to ask yourself is: ​
​Would I buy this again in this condition?  If the answer is NO, then we don't want it either.​
We accept new or gently used:
  • BOOKS IN GOOD CONDITION -            paperbacks AND hardcovers               ALL topics/all genres, fiction/nonfiction

The money raised by book sales supports programming, purchases equipment and materials not included in the library’s budget, and maintains the Friends operating costs.  If you itemize deductions, your donation may be tax deductible. The Friends can provide you a receipt. It will be up to you to determine the value of your donation.
