BOOK DONATIONS
We appreciate the special place that books have in people’s lives and the reluctance to discard them. However, limitations of time and space make it impossible for the library to accept all the books it is offered. At the moment we are only accepting books published in 2018.
If you have any questions, please call before dropping off books so that we can go over our policy and discuss the nature and amount of materials you would like to donate. Anyone wishing to drop off books should inquire at the Circulation Desk during normal library hours. The library will be happy to provide you with a letter acknowledging receipt of the books.
The following organizations accept book donations. It is recommended that you call before dropping off donations.
