Book sales are a source of funding
for Gates Public Library. To raise money, the Friends
sell materials that are in good condition. You can help
us provide better book sale selections by donating only
gently used materials.
We are unable to sell:
- Any books or items that are
moldy, dusty, dirty, damaged, cut, marked up or highlighted.
- Encyclopedias
- Textbooks
- Newsprint, newsletters,
catalogs, telephone books.
- Advertising literature,
pamphlets, flyers or brochures or junk mail.
- Outdated statistical
publications, especially obscure government surveys.
We can accept a maximum of 10
boxes of books per month from any individual.
If you have any items that the
library cannot accept, please recycle them through the
Monroe County waste paper recycling system.
When making any donations, please bring your items to
the front desk. Please limit your donation to 12
National Geographic or 12 Readers Digest condensed books
in any given month from a single household.
If you would like assistance with unloading boxes,
please telephone ahead
(247-6446).
Thank you for your cooperation.
