Used Book Donations

We accept donations of gently used books, CDs, and DVDs. We are unable to accept donations of damaged books, musty/moldy/dirty books, textbooks, encyclopedias, newspapers, magazines, puzzles, VHS tapes, or cassette tapes. Donations may be added to the library collection, sold in the Friends’ used book sales, or recycled.
