Donation House

Please remember the Friends if you are doing some spring cleaning! We are always looking for donations of clean, gently used books. Please place your bagged or boxed donations in the “house” located at the rear entrance to the library. In order to prepare for our sale, the donation house will be closed starting on Friday, May 2nd and reopen on Wednesday, May 21st.
