The Friends provide an ongoing book sale at the library. Donations are welcome (see guidelines below) and you are invited to shop for books, DVDs, and audiobooks any time the library is open.

NOTE:  At this time, we are unable to accept book donations until further notice. We ARE accepting donations of kids books and media and DVDs for all ages.  Thank you! 

1. ONLY materials in good to excellent condition can be accepted. NO soiled, stained, torn, worn, moldy, or very old materials can be accepted
2. We reserve the right to decide what to do with your donations. We may decide to: a) Add them to the library’s collection, b) Put them in the Friends of the Library Book Sale, d) place them on the “free” shelf or e) donate them to another library or organization.
3. No magazines can be accepted. (However, we do have a magazine exchange on the “free” shelf in the lobby. You may leave magazines there.)

7. Please bring only a few boxes at a time due to space limitation.
