Library Donations

There are a variety of ways to donate to the Briggs District Library.

1. Monetary donations - Any amount is welcome and appreciated at the Library.  By filling out our donation worksheet, you are able to designate your money to specific needs of the Library, for example, technology, programs, or materials. You may also make a donation in honor or memory of another individual.

2. Materials donations - New and like-new books or movies can be donated to the library for use in our used book sales. Material donations will ONLY be accepted when meeting the following guidelines:

  • Donated materials will only be accepted Saturdays during our book sales

  • Donated materials should be clean -- no dirt, mold, stains, torn covers/pages, etc.

  • Donated materials should be published within the last 10 years

  • Donated materials should be limited to a quantity that can fit in 2 bags or 2 small boxes

3.  Used Book Sale - *NEW* Used book sales will be held each Saturday from 10:00am - 12:30pm, April 6 - May 11; and Tuesday evenings from 6:00 - 7:30pm, April 16 - April 30. Books are sold on a donation basis. Book donations are accepted during our used book sales, if they meet the criteria listed above. New materials will be added each week. These will be the last book sales before the library closes for its renovation project.

4.  Fundraisers - The Library participates in various fundraising events throughout the year.  Past events have included a Schwan's Truckload Sale, Cards for a Cause, Usborne Book Fairs, VHS movie sale and a garage sale.  Your support in these fundraisers is greatly appreciated!

5. Special Collections for our community - The library routinely partners will other community organizations for special collection events. We have partnered with the Basic Needs Center, the Baby Pantry, and Toys for Tots on multiple occasions. Please reach out if you or your organization would like to partner with the library on a collection event.
