We do accept fiction books as donations as long as the books are in excellent condition and are less than 3 years from the time of publication. It is at the library director’s discretion if donated items will be used to replace a worn-out copy already on the shelf, added to the lending collection, sold, or discarded.
Items that are moldy, dirty, have damage, are bug infested, or have been chewed by a living thing, have no value to the library.
Thank you for taking these guidelines into consideration before bringing donations to the library.
