Donate Books, Time or Money to Support Your Library.
Donate Used Books
Most of us read a book and then put it on a shelf or in a box to take up space. Well, instead, we hope you will consider donating your books, DVDs and CDs to the Friends to help us raise money for the library. We'll help your books find a good home and, at the same time, help make our community library an even better facility. To donate books, please drop them in one of the large bins next to the Wisner Center by the library. If you have an estate collection of potentially valuable books and need help getting them to the library, check out our free "Book-It" pick-up service below.
Donate Your Time and Expertise
If you would like to volunteer a couple hours per week to help the Friends in their mission to support the library, visit our Volunteer page for more information.
Donate Money
When you become a member of the Friends, you are, in effect, donating to support our mission. But, we still welcome independent donations if you would like to do a little more to help. You can make a donation on our website. Just select "Patron," "Contributor," "Benefactor" or "Champion" and add it to your cart before checking out of our online store. You can also make a donation when you renew your membership..
Need help donating your books? Just say 'BOOK-IT'!
'Book-It' is a free, book-donation pick-up service
Why Use Book-It?
Many people just don’t have the time, energy or physical capabilities to get large quantities of books from their homes or businesses to us without some help. So, If you're considering donating your own book collection or one left behind in an estate, but either have other priorities or don’t know where to turn to get the ball rolling, “Book-It” can help. We'll send a team of volunteers to box, load and deliver your books to the library free of charge.
What's the Process?
- Contact us to determine if your collection is eligible for pick-up services and, if so, when is best for you. We will need to know (a) where the books are located, (b) the approximate number of books, (c) the predominant types or categories (fiction, non-fiction, textbook, etc.), and (d) the general condition of the books.
- If our representative thinks a preliminary visit is a good idea to determine the number of volunteers and cars that will be needed, he or she will schedule an Evaluation Visit with you.
- Once we determine what's needed, we will schedule a Pick-Up Visit. Generally, we can get everything in a single trip. But, a very large collection might require multiple visits. We always do our best to not disrupt other activities in your home.
- If you would like a receipt for your donation for your records or tax purposes, please request one.
