Wendy, where can I drop off book donations and what's your deadline this year for doing so?

July 15 is the preferred dropoff deadline.  The basement gets very packed and all the sorting needs to be done before the August sale.  Books & CDs/media can be dropped off at any of the library locations and mark the box "donation" or for book sale.
