Donate Books

Your gently used books get a second life — sold at our used-book sales to raise money for library programs, or added to the collection. Every donation directly supports your neighborhood library.

What We Accept

  • Fiction and non-fiction in good, clean condition
  • Children’s and young adult books — always in demand!
  • Recent paperbacks, cookbooks, and coffee-table books
  • DVDs, CDs, and audiobooks in their original cases

Please skip items that are moldy, water-damaged, heavily marked up, or missing covers — we can’t sell them, and disposal costs cut into the funds we raise. We also can’t use magazines, encyclopedias, or outdated textbooks.

How to Donate

Bring a bag or two to the library front desk during open hours — no appointment needed. For larger donations (more than a couple of boxes), please email us first at CRlibraryfriends@gmail.com so we can plan for them.
