Donate Used Books
A great way to support your library is to donate new and gently used books. Your donation may be added to the library’s collection or sold at the Friends of the Verona Public Library's ongoing used book sale. All money from the Friends’ book sale is used to enhance library programs and services.
The Friends' happily accept books in good condition published within the last 10 years.
Donations may be dropped off anytime the library is open. For large donations or drop offs that require staff assistance, please contact us in advance. Donors may receive a signed Certificate of Donation. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept the following items:
- Text books, encyclopedias, business/financial, medical/health
- Discarded library books
- Items that are damaged (warped, moldy, missing pages or covers, etc)
- Items other than books (such as DVDs, music CDs, books on CD, video games, or magazines)
Personalized Library Bricks
Due to supply issues, brick orders are not available at this time. We hope to be able to offer personalized bricks again in the near future.
