Our Book Donation Guidelines
If you would like to donate your gently used books, we currently accept a maximum of 50 items at a time per day per donor. You may drop off your donations Monday through Friday during our operating hours. When you bring your donations, go to the back of the building and bring your books inside. The donation table will be through the second door on your left. There is a cart available on the landing for you to utilize to bring your donations inside.
As we want to offer the best quality books, please be aware that our process to sort and go through donations takes time as a volunteer run operation. We are ever so thankful to those who donate their books, many great treasures have come through our doors!
If you have any questions, please call the Bookshop.
