Donations have been pouring in since our last book sale, so there are LOTS of new items that have not been in a sale before.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Friends accepting donations? +

Yes! The Friends gladly accept gently used books, movies, music, audiobooks, and games. Donations should be placed in the black bins outside the Friends Room door, next to the elevator, on the library lower level. For a full list of items we can accept, go to: https://friendsofmppl.mailerpage.com/donations

Are donations tax-deductible? +

Yes! Donations are tax-deductible because the Friends are a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. We can provide a receipt for your donation, but are unable to assist in determining the value of donated items.

How do I renew my Friends membership? +

Friends membership is not required to attend the book sale, but a membership is a great way to support the Friends. We will be sending an update soon with changes to our membership benefits and instructions for how to renew your membership online for all who are interested.
