Thank you for thinking of your local library! Donations of materials are accepted at all locations as space allows. All donations are assessed by library staff to determine if they are needed for the library’s collection. Materials not kept for the library are given to the Friends and Foundation of the Arlington Public Library for their Spring and Fall book sales or recycled.

Items of interest:

  • Hardcover books in new or slightly used condition. Popular authors and non-fiction less than three years old are especially welcome.
  • Trade paperbacks of authors that are not published in hardcover form.
  • Audiovisual materials including DVDs, music CDs, and audiobooks on CD.
