  • Organize your donations.
    Sort all books into banker’s boxes or Fresh Direct Bags so that they are easy to lift. If you need banker boxes or bags, we have plenty you can have. Books are heavy! Before you drop off your books, review the guide. Organize them by general age level, type, or category. For example, here are typical categories: picture books, board books, early chapter books, chapter books, preschool, elementary books, young adult, high school, etc. Please do not send any books that you would not want in your own home or are not for ages 0-18. For example, do not give us: torn books, books with scribbles, outdated books or adult books.

    Don’t forget to label each of your banker’s boxes or bags with the book type or category. Let us know the total number of books your book drive collected and will be donating.
