Library Donation Guidelines

The Friends of the Hamilton-Wenham Public Library will accept books, CDs, videos and DVDs in good condition to sell at their book sales. Donations are accepted at the library on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Please call ahead (978-468-5577) if you have a large donation. Do not leave donations outside the library when the library is closed! 

Please follow these helpful guidelines

1.     Pack donations so they lay flat in a sturdy, appropriately-sized box or bag.

2.     No textbooks with a publication date prior to 1995.

3.     No encyclopedias with a publication date prior to 1995 and no incomplete sets of encyclopedias.

4.     No magazines.

5.     No Reader's Digest condensed books.

6.     No musty, moldy, or damp items.  These items endanger our library and your home.  THROW THEM AWAY. 

Thank you for your adhering to our guidelines. Your donations make it possible for the Friends to fund museum passes and programs for our library.
