Bring the items to the front desk.  Please do not deposit in the outside book drop.  If you need a receipt for tax purposes, please ask. 

The book sale is run by volunteers.  The library is always looking for volunteers to help with the sale.  They are needed to help set up tables, bring materials up from the basement, sort materials into subject categories, and to actually staff the sale.
