Books that are donated by residents are then categorized by volunteers and sold during a book sale to raise funds for the library.
Donate books on Wednesdays and Saturdays in October and November through November 23. Gently read books will once again be accepted INSIDE the Palisades Library, 861 Alma Real.
Volunteers will be available to accept gently read books between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Donation days are: October 16, 19, 23, 26 and 30, and November 2, 6, 9, 13, 16, 20 and 23.
Friends of the Library’s Seem Wolsefer said “Please note that we can only accept books in very good condition. Books should not be written in or highlighted or show signs of excessive wear and tear.
“We cannot accept magazines, textbooks, CDs, DVDs, encyclopedias or library books,” Wolsefer said and added, “Donating items that cannot be sold in our book sale puts extra work on our volunteers who then have to find other places that can accept the books.”
REMINDER: Please do not leave book donations at the library other than the specified days and times. Do NOT drop off donations when volunteers are not present.
