Material Donations

The Northfield Township Area Library is happy to accept gently-used books, CDs, and DVDs. Donate your extra books to the Library to add to our collection or book sales.

What does the Library accept?
We accept new or gently-used books, CDs, DVDs, and high-quality magazines. However, we cannot use materials that are worn, out-of-date, or may contain mold or mildew. We do not accept textbooks, encyclopedias, law books, or VHS tapes.  If you have questions about a donation, please call the Library at (734) 449-0066.

What will the Library do with my donation?
If we cannot use the items in our collection, we will sell them in our book sale which helps fund new library materials and pay for special programs.

How do I donate?
Bring your donation to the front desk. We will accept one box or bag (no heavier than 40 lbs.) per day.  At this time, we are only accepting donations on Mondays.

In-Kind Donations

At times, we need to reach beyond the annual budget to fund items that we need for library services or programs. In-kind gifts could include office equipment, furniture or supplies, artwork or historical collectibles, tools of the trade, etc. If interested in making an in-kind donation, please contact our director, Zaley Nelson.
