We have no paid staff and all of our inventory is donated. We do not generally purchase books with donated funds.

We also welcome donations of gently used, high quality children's books. Books may be dropped off during regular business hours.

The Children's Book Bank requests that donations NOT include adult books or novels, young adult books or novels, school or text books, discarded school or library books, magazines, damaged books or books published more than 10 years ago. Dictionaries are welcome.

The Children's Book Bank endeavors to use all donated books. Donated books that are unsuitable for our customers are donated to local agencies and organizations or are recycled. Please help us by limiting donations of books to gently used children's books.
