Book Sale Donations

 

Thank you! Your generous donation of lightly used items makes our book sale a success year after year.

 

Drop offs will be accepted at the beginning of September this year.

Please check back soon for the start date and locations of drop offs.

 

We gratefully accept donations of clean, saleable items, including:

  • Fiction, non-fiction, and graphic novels for readers of all ages
  • Hardcover, paperback, large-format paperback, and large-print books
  • Textbooks published within the last 10 years
  • Antiquarian, rare, and collectible books
  • Board games, video games, and puzzles (complete and in working/playable condition)
  • CDs, vinyl records, and sheet music
  • DVDs and Blu-ray discs

Unfortunately, we cannot accept:

  • Encyclopedia sets
  • Magazines of any kind (including National Geographic)

Whenever possible, please pack items lying flat in sturdy cardboard boxes. Boxes are preferred, but if they are not available, cloth bags are an acceptable alternative. Boxes or bags should not exceed a maximum weight of 30 lb (13.5 kg) so they can be handled safely by our volunteers.

Condition Guidelines:

We can only accept items that are in good, saleable condition. Items that contain water-damaged, yellowed or torn pages, are missing pages or pieces, or smell musty, smoky or moldy, may be declined at the time of donation.
