2. Donations of VHS and DVD’s, books on tape or CD’s will be accepted at any time.

3. Printed materials will be accepted if published in the last five years and are in good to excellent condition. Rare and collector books will be accepted or refused based on condition and value.

4. Printed materials not accepted included textbooks, Reader’s Digest Condensed Books, magazines and encyclopedias.

5. Paperback books and current magazines in good condition may be put in the Paperback and Magazine Exchange areas of the Library at any time.
