All HCPL locations accept book donations.

Be aware that bags or boxes will not be returned to you. Donated materials must be in good, sellable condition. In addition to general interest fiction and non-fiction for all age groups, textbooks less than ten years old and computer books less than three years old can be accepted. DVDs and CDs are also accepted. Please call the library for more information about donating. Thank you for thinking of HCPL!
