Our Community Library
Our volunteers are working hard to keep our library in good order, especially since some of our volunteers have left for the summer. I cannot emphasize enough that we have a finite amount of space and cannot accept all the books that are left in the library by residents who are moving or simply cleaning house. Please keep these guidelines in mind when you consider donating your books.
WE DO NOT ACCEPT:
Books that have been published prior to 2016.
Books that are damaged, including items that are soiled, water damaged, have loose, yellowed or missing pages or covers. Computer books or instructional manuals. Children’s books, Reference materials, VHS tapes, cassette tapes, CDs and DVDs.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Happy reading!
