We Welcome Your Donations
We are happy to accept your donations of gently used hardcover, softcover, and children's books. Please use your good judgement; if the book is too worn for your personal collection, it's unlikely we can re-sell it.
We do not accept donations of music CDs, DVDs, or other media. We will accept magazines if they are no older than two months.
Drop off your donations to our friendly bookstore volunteers anytime during regular library hours, or if you'll need assistance getting your books into the library, email FriendsBookDonations@marionpubliclibrary.org to arrange a time. We can provide receipts for tax purposes.
Thanks for supporting the library!
