Donations, Donations

We get a lot of phone calls at the library asking if we accept donations. Well the answer is a resound YES!! We love to get donations of books magazines, videos, DVDs, and puzzles. Whether it is just one item or a whole box full we are always happy to receive a donation. We go through every donation and decide whether it should be added to the collection or if it should go to the Friends of the Library for one of their book sales. In either case, the item will be used by one person, or many people. A lot of the donations are used to replace older, worn out copies of popular titles. For example, our copy of Dan Brown's Angels and Demons has seen better days. It has been taped and glued more times than we can count. So if anyone has a copy of that book they no longer need, we will gladly accept it! There are a few things that we cannot accept as donations. We will not take any Reader's Digest condensed books or textbooks. Also, anything that is moldy or dirty. Other than that we would love to have it! So the next time you are cleaning out your shelves, feel free to bring any unwanted books over to the library!
