The Friends of the Morgan Hill Library are grateful to the community for its continuing support.  Good quality donations are always needed. These items are sold by the Friends and the proceeds benefit the Library.

You can leave your donations with one of the Friends of the Morgan Hill Library volunteers in the bookstore. If the bookstore is closed, please leave donations at the front desk with the library staff and tell them that the material is being donated to the Friends.

Please donate the following:

• Books — all types, paperback and hardback
• Newer textbooks (less than 10 years old)
• Books on tape or CDs — abridged or unabridged
• Music CDs
• DVDs and Videos
• Jigsaw puzzles — with no missing pieces

Please do not donate the following:

• Encyclopædias
• Outdated textbooks (older than 10 years)
• Outdated computer materials (older than 10 years)
• Reader's Digest books
• Torn, damaged or water-spotted books
• Moldy, dirty, insect-ridden or mouse-nibbled books
• Magazines (The library has a free drop-off bin for magazines.)
• Board games

You may donate items any time the library is open. Receipts for your tax-deductible book donations are available at the Friends Bookstore or at the library's Accounts desk.

We encourage recycling books that cannot be used by the Friends. Books with paper covers may be placed in your home "mixed paper" recycling bin. You may take hardcover books to Western Recycling in Gilroy or Westside Recycling in Morgan Hill (see addresses below).

We welcome and accept anything that you would give to a Friend.

Thank you!
