Make sure your donations of books, games, puzzles, cds, and dvds are in useable condition.

Puzzles sold particularly well at our last book sale.  We are hoping to get lots of those! 

We found that paperbacks printed before about 1970 were too fragile to be readable. We also find that encyclopedias don't sell--although they provide a great workout for the volunteers.
