Thank you for your interest in contributing to our collections! 

If you have books you're interested in donating to the Library, you may contact Madeline Veitch, our Collection Development Librarian. If we have capacity to review possible donations at that point, you may be asked to create a spreadsheet with the title, author, and year of publication for each book. This allows us to see which titles we already have in our collections and which we may be able to accept. We may also coordinate with the Friends of the Library to see if they can accept part or all of your donation for their book sale if apppropriate. This helps to raise money for the Library to buy additional books and media. 

Should we accept your donation, we'll work with you to arrange a drop off time and can often meet you in the parking lot with a book truck.
