The Friends of the Library welcomes donations for their regularly-scheduled and ongoing book sales.

Due to fire safety and limits on storage space, there are times during the year when no donations can be accepted.

The Library has begun system-wide capital improvements which also affect whether donations can be accepted. Please see Building Our Future for more information.

The chart below indicates which locations are currently able to accept book sale donations, but customers are encouraged to call in advance to ensure donations are being accepted.
