The Erwin Library and Institute does not accept condensed books (including Reader’s Digest Condensed Books), textbooks, encyclopedias, phone books, or pamphlets. Books must be five years old or newer, and in good condition. Our library also reserves the right to decide if the material goes into the collection or the book sale. If you have more books than, say, a grocery bag full, please call ahead so that we can determine if we have enough space. Please do not put donations in the book drop, and please do not leave them on the stoop.Donations are always welcome.
