Books and media donations are welcomed!

Picture

We know it's hard to throw out books - memories, good intentions, reminders of friends. If it's a book you love, keep it! However, if you're pretty sure you're never going to read it again, donate it!

The Library sorts donations for possible additions to the permanent library  collection then passes the remaining materials along to the Friends.
The Friends pass along some donations to other non-profit and educational institutions and programs within the City at no cost.
If you're sending personal items to our troops, stop in. We'll add some books to your box of goodies at no cost.

All the following materials are welcome, unless visibly falling apart, moldy, shredded, or otherwise too damaged to use.If you are in doubt, please include them and we will make the determination.

Books -- all kinds, all subjects, fiction , non-fiction, hard cover, paperback, for adults and children.
Movies, music, and books on tape - CD and DVD format ONLY please
 Recent , dictionaries and other reference materials, including computer programs and manuals
 Foreign language materials
 Art and photography books
 All vintage materials that may have collectible appeal
 
If you are unsure, give us a call
 We do NOT accept used textbooks or magazines


Where should I bring my donations?

Donations can be dropped in tote-able bags or boxes at the Friends Store or the
Circulation Desk of the Library.

If you have a large load, please come to the loading dock off Line Street. Ring the bell and someone will come to help you unload. Ask for a receipt for your donation
