Thank you for thinking of us! We truly appreciate your donation.

Just a reminder: we do not accept titles by far right authors, or titles that promote hate speech. We also cannot accept moldy books, books that have a heavy smoke odor, or books with severe water damage.

We can accept donations of any size. This questionnaire will help us determine the best arrangements for accepting your books.
